Straver Drops Below 100K
Level 6
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Lewis Spencer opened to 6,500 from the cutoff and Johannes Straver called from the big blind.
The 9?8?3? flop checked through to the 2? turn. Straver led out for 26,000 and was called.
The 4? completed the board and Straver sized up to 55,000. Spencer quickly flicked in a calling chip.
Straver had been caught speeding and could only show 7?6? for seven-high. Spencer had 10?9? for top pair and took in the pot.
"Keep trapping me," said Straver as he counted out his short stack.
"I just keep getting good hands," replied Spencer.
