Kaplan Turns a Straight to Bust Bilan
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
On a board of 7♠4♥J♦ Stefan Schoss bet 4,500 from middle position with Paco Kaplan calling from the cutoff, and Florin Bilan calling from the blinds.
Bilan shoved for roughly 15,000 when the 8♥ hit the turn. Schoss instantly folded, but Kaplan snap-called.
Florin Bilan: J♣J♥
Paco Kaplan : 6♣5♣
Bilan had top set but Kaplan had spiked a straight on the turn to be ahead. There was no board-pair on the river as the dealer put out the Q♦. Kaplan pulled in the put and Bilan was out.
