Deak Turns the Straight
Level 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Action folded to Carlos De Lima in the small blind, and he limped in. Ferenc Deak raised it up to 1,800,000 from the big blind, and De Lima made the call.
The flop came 9♣Q♥Q♠, and after Deak continued for 800,000, De Lima check-raised to 2,500,000. Deak called.
On the 10♦ turn, De Lima kept the pressure on with a bet of 3,000,000, and once again Deak made the call to see the 3♠ river.
Both players slowed down and checked, and Deak revealed K♠J♥J♣3♦ for a straight. It was more than enough, and he dragged in the pot.
