Corkins Straightened Out

Daniel Steinberg
Daniel Steinberg

Just the tail end of another pot...

There was a board of {6-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} on the table when we walked up, and Daniel Steinberg fired out 15,000 into a pot of more than 30,000. He was heads up with Hoyt Corkins, and "Cowboy" Corkins raised to 40,000. Steinberg let out a big sigh and sunk in his chair, not liking the call he was about to be forced into. When the dealer announced the amount of the raise, Steinberg matched it.

Corkins tabled {9-Clubs} {10-Clubs} for the straight, and Steinberg's fears were unfounded. He tabled {4-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} for the baby flush, good enough to take down the pot and chip him just back over the 400,000-chip mark.

Corkins is down to 107,000 after Steinberg spurred him in that pot.
