Gicovanu Doubles with a Straight
Level 28
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 5♥A♥Q♠, Frederic Delval on the button bet 135,000 and Marius Gicovanu in the big blind check-called.
Both players checked the K♦ turn, leading to the 2♠ river that Gicovanu checked. Delval bet 300,000, then Gicovanu immediately check-raised all in for 325,000.
Delval snap-called with 2♦2♣ for a set, but Gicovanu already had the nuts with J♠10♠ for a straight to double up.
