Sam Stein running hot.
Sam Stein running hot.

Sam Stein opened to 5,000 and a player behind him called. The flop came {10-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}, Stein checked, the player bet 8,000 and Stein raised to 22,500. The player said pot, enough to go all in, and Stein insta-called.

Stein: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {J-Spades} {10-Diamonds}
Player: {Q-Clubs} {9-Spades} {8-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}

Despite flopping a straight, Stein had him beat flopping a king high straight. Then he improved on the river when the board finished {3-Spades} {A-Spades}. Stein is up to 425,000.
