Polk Turns Straight on Tilston

Level 10 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Keith Tilston opened to 26,000 holding {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Doug Polk called in the big blind holding {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

The flop fell {7-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Spades} and Polk checked to Tilston who continued for 40,000. Polk called and, when the turn landed the {6-Diamonds}, he checked again.

Tilston pushed out a bet of 100,000 and Polk responded by moving all in for 1,462,000 as Tilston entered the think tank.

After roughly two minutes, Tilston folded his his pair and straight draw and slipped to 231,000 while Polk climbed to 1.7 million in chips.
