Lam Turns a Straight to Eliminate One
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Vincent Lam raised to 1,200 in middle position and was called by both the small and big blind.
The 9?6?2? flop was checked through to see the 8? turn. The small blind led for 3,000 and the player next to act made the call before Lam put in a raise to 15,000. The original bettor folded and the player in the middle called off his stack of 7,800.
Opponent: A?10?6?3?
Vincent Lam: Q?J?10?7?
Lam turned a straight with a redraw to a queen-high flush, dominating his opponent's ten-high flush draw and the 3? river changed nothing as Lam pulled in the pot.
