Cowen Hits a Straight Against Lamb
Level 27
: 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Robert Cowen raised first to act with the 
and was called by Ben Lamb with the 
in the big blind. They checked the 
flop and Lamb bet half the pot for 550,000 on the 
turn, which Cowen called.
After the 
river, Cowen improved to a nine-high straight and Lamb checked for Cowen to take the conservative line and check it back in order to win the pot.
