Roche Flops a Straight, Eliminates Rothschild
Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Action folded to Kevin Roche on the button, and he raised to 7,000 on the button. Once the small blind folded, Luke Rothschild made the call in the big blind.
Both players checked the [6d10h7s flop.
After the 6♣ on the turn, Rothchild bet out 6,000, and Roche made the call.
The river was the 4♠ and Rothchild bet 12,000, before Roche raised him all in, for his last 20,000 chips. Rothschild did make the call and turned over 9♣7♦ for two pair sevens and sixes. But Roche had the best hand when tabled 9♦8♠ for a flopped straight, to take the pot and eliminate Rothschild.
