Bakes Straightens Out E-Fro

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We missed the preflop action, but David Bakes Baker, Eric Froehlich, and Narendra Banwari all took a flop of {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. Baker was first to act, and he put out a bet of 26,000. Froehlich made the call, and Banwari got out of the way, leaving the two heads up. The turn brought the {7-Hearts}, and both players checked. The {10-Hearts} hit the river, and Baker assembled a bet of 72,000, and slid it into the middle. Once Froehlich got the count, he only took a few moments before announcing call. Baker showed {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a straight, and Froehlich mucked his hand. Baker upped his stack to 450,000, while Froehlich is still the big chip leader with 850,000.
