Bække Not Biting

Wow, we've got ourselves one sneaky German.

Russell Carson opened to 185,000 from the button, and Johannes Strassmann made the call from the small blind. In the big, Allan Bække decided a squeeze was in order, and he made it 605,000 straight. Carson quickly folded, but Strassmann came along with another call, and the two men were heads up.

The board ran out {6-Hearts}

with the action check-checking all the way down. We couldn't see what Bække tabled, but it was definitely second-best to Strassmann's surprise {A-Clubs}
