Compton Rivers a Straight
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Acton was picked up with 1,000 chips in the pot, and a board showing 7♠J♥6♦. David Compton bet out 600 from the small blind, both the big blind and a player in the cutoff made the call.
The turn brought the K♦ and Compton again bet out 600, but this time the big blind folded, and the cutoff made the call.
On the river was the 8♥ and Compton fired out once more, for 1,000. The cutoff quickly called and tabled K♠Q♥ for top pair with kings, but Compton had the winner when he showed 10♥9♦ for a rivered straight.
