Stranak Stays Alive
Level 34
: Blinds 0/0, 400,000 ante
4♥5♦K♦2♠5♠
10♣J♠2♥3♣2♦
Samuel Stranak made it 1,200,000 to go and Xixiang Luo min-raised to 2,400,000. Robert Klein cold-called, and Stranak stuck in his remaining 1,200,000 that he had behind.
The turn and rivers were checked down and Luo scooped the side pot with 8♣4♠4♦2♣ for a boat on top and trips on the bottom, beating Klein's K♥Q♣Q♥J♦.
Stranak chopped the main pot with Luo as he showed K♣10♥10♠9♦ for a full house on the bottom, meaning he stayed alive.
