Sugarek Flops Nuts

Jim Sugarek

After the action was limped preflop, Jim Sugarek was thrilled to see a flop of {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{10-Hearts}, as he held {J-?}{Q-?} for the flopped straight.

However, after he check-called the 2,000 bet on the flop, the board started to get a little scary, forcing another check-call to a 4,000 bet on the {10-Clubs} turn and checking it down on the {9-Clubs} river.

Sugarek's straight held up and he moves up to 56,000.
