Mammen Shows the Straight

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Action was picked up on the turn of an inflated pot, with 15,700 in the middle.

The board read 10J78 and early position Joshua Mammen bet out for 4,000, and was called by hijack Thomas Pinaud.

The river A peeled off, and Mammen sized up to 11,000, sending Pinaud into a deep tank. After some time, Mammen started counting on his fingers, "seven, eight, nine, ten, jack."

Pinaud folded, and Mammen tabled the 9 followed by the Q for a queen-high straight.
