Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Adrian State limped in from the small blind with 5?4? and Abdullah Alajmi checked, showing only the 5?.
Both players checked the 10?7?6? flop as the 8? turn gave State a straight. He checked to Alajmi, then called a bet of 650,000.
The river was the K? and Alajmi bet 1,750,000. State counted out the chips to call and tanked for a minute before giving up his hand as Alajmi took the pot.
