Roger Teska raises to 40,000 on the cutoff and Kwinsee Tran reraises to 100,000 on the button. Action folds around to Teska and he calls.
The flop comes down [10h8s4s] and Teska checks. Tran bets 124,000 and Teska takes a minute before check-raising to 310,000 total. Tran thinks for a minute or two, then calls.
The turn brings the [6c] and Teska takes a few seconds before announcing he is all-in. Tran calls instantly and tables [10d10c] for top set. Teska has the best hand though, as he turned a straight with [7s9s].
The river brings the [Qd] and Teska’s straight holds to give him the massive pot and leave Tran with just a handful of chips.
Roger Teska – 1,820,000 (91 BBs)
Kwinsee Tran – 75,000 (4 BBs)
