Klein Takes Three Quarters From Stranak, Now Chip Leads
Level 33
: Blinds 0/0, 300,000 ante
2♠5♣8♣7♦9♠
Q♦2♦5♠A♥K♦
Robert Klein was first to act and bet 500,000, which Samuel Stranak called. When the turn hit, Klein bet 1,500,000, Stranak potted to 6,400,000, Klein shoved, and Stranak called off his last few chips.
Samuel Stranak: 8♠7♠4♠3♦
Robert Klein: 4♥3♠2♥2♣
Klein had flopped a set of deuces on both boards and the two of them each hit a wheel on the turn. The river changed nothing, meaning Klein took three quarters of the pot.
