Straight for Weis Scores Double
Level 9
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Three players put in 14,000 each to cultivate a pot heading into a flop.
Nacho Barbero and Terry Woodruff both checked when the 2♠3♠4♦ flop fanned out. Weis decided to fire 14,000. Barbero folded, but Woodruff was not done with the hand as he announced pot and raised. Weis responded with an all in and Woodruff called to send the two to a showdown with Weis at risk.
Oliver Weis: A♦6♠6♦5♥
Terry Woodruff: K♠Q♠3♥2♦
Weis held the lead with a six-high straight, while Woodruff held two pair and a flush draw. The 4♣ turn and the 9♣ river were not what Woodruff hoped for, as he was left with little chips while Weis dragged in the pot.
