Stranak Waves the White Flag
Level 34
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Samuel Stranak limped in with 7♥5♣ from the blinds and called when Xhavit Berisha made it 450,000 from the big blind with A♦5♠.
On the Q♠6♠6♦ flop, Stranak checked raised to 625,000 after Berisha continued for 250,000. The latter called. Berisha sealed the checkmark on the A♠ turn and called when Stranak fired out another 650,000.
The 9♠ river completed the board, and Berisha improved to a flush. Stranak gave up on his bluff and checked. Berisha did the same and took in the pot.
