Straight for Erik Nason

Aug 26, 2018

Erik Nason opens to 225,000 in the cutoff and Aaron Messmer defends his big blind as both players check the Diamond 5Diamond 9Heart 7 flop.

The turn lands the Spade 7 and Messmer bets out 325,000 with Nason calling.

The river is the Heart 8 and Messmer checks to Nason who bets 750,000.

Messmer thinks, and then makes the call tabling his Diamond JSpade J. However, it would be Nason’s Spade ASpade 6 for a straight that would see him scoop another pot to further his chip advantage.

Erik Nason – 7,800,000
Aaron Messmer – 3,800,000
