Roussell Flops a Straight
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Nir Cohen raised to 140,000 from under the gun and Chino Rheem called. Leslie Roussell then shoved all in for 385,000, and Cohen reshoved for around 900,000. Rheem debated calling but eventually let his hand go.
Leslie Roussell: 6♦5♥4♣3♠ 
Nir Cohen: A♣A♠5♠3♥
Cohen was in a great spot holding some of his opponent's outs but the 7♣3♣5♣ flop changed that as Roussell flopped a straight to take the lead.
An A♦ on the turn did give Cohen some outs but the 10♥ river didn't pair the board which meant Roussell doubled up.
