Longstaff Hits Longshot
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Arthur Schiavo raised to 8,000 from under the gun, and Benjamin Longstaff called in the small blind.
The flop came K♣A♣9♠. Longstaff check-called a bet of 15,000 from Schiavo.
The turn was the 10♥. Longstaff check-raised Schiavo’s 27,000 bet to 100,000, and Schiavo called.
The river brought the 6♠. Longstaff now led for 120,000. Schiavo asked, 'will you show if I fold?' but Longstaff remained silent. After Schiavo's cards hit the muck, Longstaff revealed Q♥J♥, good for a turned straight.
