Getting It In the Tureniec
Only a small pot had formed by the flop but there was a very large bet, suggesting a raise, in front of Lauri Rantalainen (position) when we arrived at the table. We couldn't see whether Michael Tureniec (out of position) had indeed bet out, as he was in the process of moving all in to cover Rantalainen, who called.
Tureniec: for a set
Rantalainen: for a straight flush draw
Turn:
River:
Either the straight or the flush would have done, but the straight flush was very pretty nonetheless. Rantalainen doubled up to around 45,000.
"Wow," said Tureniec a moment later, taking it with good grace but looking a little shocked. He was left with less than 20,000.
