Stagg Stacks Opponent with Rivered Straight
Level 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Shawn Stagg was involved in a hand against an opponent that started off innocently enough without fireworks.
The flop, however, brought excitement.
On a board of 7?10?5?, Stagg��s opponent bet, and then Stagg, one of the largest stacks at his table, moved all in. The action returned to Stagg��s opponent, who took a few moments before making the call.
Stagg: 6?4?
Opponent: J?10?
Stagg made the move on an open-ended straight draw, while his opponent held top pair. The turn didn��t help Stagg when Q? arrived on the board, but he drilled one of his eight outs when 3? showed up to give Stagg the straight and pot.
