Carter King Straightens Out With Eights

Nov 18, 2011

After a preflop raise to 600, Carter King (small blind) and a player in late position see a flop of [Js9s7d]. King check-calls a bet of 600.

The turn is the [10s], King checks, his opponent bets 1,000, and King calls. The river pairs the board with the [7c], and both players check.

His opponent shows [AhJc] for two pair, jacks and sevens, but Carter King turns over [8c8d] to win the pot with a jack-high straight on the turn.

Carter King  –  33,000
