Runner-Runner Makes It Funner
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Gavin Sardini in the big blind, Ivan Svitlychnyi in middle position, and Mandu Sansonnens on the button had gathered 330,000 in the middle when they went to the 4♦3♠9♦ flop. It checked to Sansonnens, who fired a bet of 65,000.
Sardini called before Sansonnens got out of the way and mucked. The J♠ turn then quickly checked through to the 10♠ river. Sardini took the initiative by betting 75,000, being snap-called by Sansonnens.
Sardini tabled K♥Q♥ for a rivered straight, and a frustrated Sansonnens slammed his cards into the muck in defeat.
