Runcan Spikes a Straight on the River
Level 38
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Georgios Tsouloftas limped in from under the gun and Michal Schuh called from the small blind. Paul Runcan was in the big blind with 200,000 behind, and checked.
All three checked the 5?2?10? flop to the 6? turn. Shuh bet 600,000, Runcan called all-in, and Tsouloftas folded.
Paul Runcan: Q?4? 
Michal Schuh: 9?2?
Runcan had a flush draw, gutshot, plus pair outs and managed to find one of them as the 3? on the river gave him a straight, which boosted his stack to nearly three million.
