Nitsche Hurts Strauss Flopping Top Set

We have just seen Dominik Nitsche win a vital pot against Jason Strauss. We didn’t grab the complete action but can tell you that Strauss opened in first position and Nitsche defended the big blind. Then Nitsche check-called the flop  and lead for two streets on a board of [8s] [6c] [4d] [9c] [Kh]. Strauss paid him off and mucked when Nitsche showed pocket eights for top set.

Nitsche ~ 3.8 million
Strauss ~ 450,000
