Runner-Runner Straight for Blasko
Level 8
: 300/600, 600 ante
The flop read 
with three players involved and a pot containing 7,000 when Hao Wu bet 2,500. Jan Stoklasa called and Marek Blasko decided to raise it to 10,000 from the button. Wu folded but Stoklasa moved all-in, putting Blasko at risk.
Blasko went deep into the tank and asked if it was a re-entry tournament before ending calling with 
for a pair of queens. Stoklasa showed 
for a set of tens.
The turn brought the 
and the river the 
, giving a runner-runner straight to Blasko who doubled up toa stack around 80,000 while Stoklasa chipped down to 15,000 chips.
