Straight Over Straight
Level 18
: Blinds 0/0, 10,000 ante
David Prociak limped in from early position, as did Robert James on his direct left and Moses Alosh in the hijack. Wai Kiat Lee checked his option on the button.
The flop of 8?10?A? checked through to the 7? on the turn. The action was checked to Alosh, who bet out for 85,000. Only Prociak and James called.
The K? on the river prompted Prociak to lead out for 170,000. James folded and Alosh snap-called.
David Prociak: J?9?
Moses Alosh: 9x6x
Both players had turned a straight. Alosh with the bottom end had to concede the pot to Prociak.
