A Straight to Double for Schiavo
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
On a board of 5♠Q♦8♠K♦, Tianyi Ma under the gun bet 3,200 and Matthew Schiavo in the big blind raised all-in for 11,300. Ma went deep into the tank, even asking to the dealer how much he had to add to call. After a minute, he decided to call.
Matthew Schiavo: J♣10♥ 
Tianyi Ma: A♥K♣
Ma called with top pair but Schiavo had a straight. The 10♦ river changed nothing and Schiavo doubled up.
