Michael Rivers a Straight

Tyler Boyer

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action was picked up with four players in the hand, with Chein Nguyen all in and at risk.

The flop came 4?8?6? and Ethan Siemiesz checked from the big blind, as did Chris Dilts in middle position. Warren Michael in the cutoff then bet all in for 29,900. He was called by Siemiesz and Dilts quickly folded.

Chien Nguyen: 7?5? All in
Warren Michael: 5?5? All in
Ethan Siemiesz: 10?10?

Nguyen who was all in pre flop, flopped a straight. For the side pot Siemiesz was ahead with his over pair, but Warren could hit a five to make a set, or a seven for a straight to stay in the tournament.

The A? on the turn was no help for Michael, but the 7? on the river improved him to a straight, to take the side pot. Both Michael and Nguyen had an eight high straight, and they chopped up the main pot.
