Moraru's Straight is Good at Showdown
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
With roughly 10,000 in the middle already on a board of 7♥6♥5♥J♣, Alexandru Moraru checked from the big blind and Ferdinando D'alessio bet 8,000 from early position. Moraru thought about it for a while before making the call.
A 4♦ completed the board and both players quickly checked. Moraru turned over a flopped straight with 9♠8♠ and D'alessio mucked his cards.
