Theveniaud Climbs to the Top of the Counts with Straight Flush
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
In the closing stages of the last level, Serhii Leonov opened to 4,000 from under the gun and was called by Harry Lodge and Cedric Theveniaud from the hijack and big blind.
Leonov continued for 7,000 on the 7♣8♣5♣ flop and only Theveniaud called.
The 3♠ turn saw Theveniaud check-call for 19,000 which brought in the 6♠ river. Theveniaud led out for 22,000 and was quickly called.
Amazingly, Theveniaud turned over 6♣4♣ for a flopped straight flush while Leonov was shocked to see he was beat as he had K♣J♣.
Theveniaud's good times continued shortly after, as he picked up pocket kings and used them to see off Diego Angeli after the latter jammed for around 100,000 with pocket sevens.
