Bevans Folds the Flop with a Straight
Level 14
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of 8?9?10?, Karim Bevans led out for 50,000 but then Lam Tran moved all in to cover him. After some considerable tanking, Bevans open-folded 6?7?, a straight, and the entire table lost their minds.
"I can't improve!" he proclaimed, " He could have so much that can draw out on me, I would have to fade so much, and I have to make Day 2." This sparked a lively debate amongst the players on whether or not that was a good move, and Tran did show K?4? for a flush draw.
