Ketzer Rivers a Straight, Niste Pays Off
Level 1
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Felipe Ketzer has gotten off to a great start and is also nearing a stack of 150,000.
Mihai Niste opened from under the gun to 1,000 and Felipe Ketzer three-bet the button to 3,500. Niste called.
They saw a flop of A♦J♣Q♥ where Niste check-called a bet of 2,000 from Ketzer to the A♠ turn, which checked through.
An 8♥ dropped on the river and Niste led out for 2,500. Ketzer then raised to 10,800, and Niste quickly called.
Ketzer tabled a straight with 10♦9♦, and Niste mucked his hand.
