Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The action escalated quickly on a flop of 4♣J♦2♦, with two players getting their chips in the middle.
Travis Hartshorn, in the cutoff, held 6♦5♦ for both a straight and flush draw, while Gregory Brown had K♦J♥ in the big blind for top pair.
The turn brought the 3♠, completing Hartshorn’s straight and leaving Brown drawing dead. The 9♣ river was just a formality as Brown hit the rail and Hartshorn secured himself a spot at the top of chip counts.
