Ogura Takes Down Big Pot
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
On a three-way flop of 5?4?6?, Ludovic Geilich checked, Takashi Ogura bet 27,000 and was called by both opponents.
The turn was the 8? and it was checked again to Ogura, who bet the pot, putting himself all in for around 300,000.
The short-stacked player behind him called for his last 45,000 while Geilich eventually folded after some thought.
Opponent: Q?10?9?8?
Takashi Ogura: A?Q?8?7?
Ogura was well in the lead with his straight, but his opponent could still hit a flush or higher straight to win.
The river J? did neither of those things, and Ogura was shipped the pot while his opponent headed to the payout desk.
