Straight over Straight for James
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
On a flop of 5?Q?10?, Iaron Lightbourne checked then raised to 825,000 after Jason James in the big blind bet 300,000.
James called, then on the 9? turn, Lightbourne bet 1,000,000. James called again to find the Q? river where Lightbourne announced "all-in" for 4,500,000 with J?8? for a straight.
James went deep into the tank with K?J? for a better straight, and made the call to scoop the pot.
