Tex Straightens Out Medic

Nenad Medic limped from under the gun, John "Tex" Barch limped his button, Klinghammer Thibaut folded his small blind and Trai Dang checked his option.

The dealer flopped {Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} and the action checked to Barch who bet 60,000. Dang folded, but Medic called.

Both players checked the {A-Spades} on the turn and Medic checked a third time after the {8-Hearts} rivered. Barch quickly reached for chips and bet 80,000. Medic tanked momentarily before painstakingly making the call.

"Straight," Barch said as soon as Medic's chips hit the felt.

Indeed his {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} straightened out on the river and he was shipped the 200,000-chip put to push back over a million chips.
