Steed Saved by the River
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
In a blind on blind duel, all the money ended up in the middle preflop between Carlos Ramirez in the small blind and Kay Steed in the big blind, and it was Steed who was at risk.
Kay Steed: Q♣Q♦
Carlos Ramirez: A♥K♦
Not the flop Steed wanted to see when it peeled off 9♥K♥J♠ to send Ramirez into the lead, and it was looking grim when the 4♣ came on the turn. Then the magical 10♠ dropped on the turn for Steed, completing a straight, just as she was standing up to head back down under.
"Oh, I've got a straight, haven't I?" asked Steed, as she saw the pot being pushed her way.
