Rodin is a "Very Lucky Guy"
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Mark Helou raised to 65,000 under the gun and received three callers - Jon Kyte in middle position, Grigorii Rodin in the cutoff, and big blind Dejan Jakovljevic.
The flop came 5?3?8? and Helou bet 100,000. Kyte and Rodin called, while Jakovljevic folded.
The A? fell on the turn and action checked to Rodin who bet 245,000. Helou called and Kyte folded.
Both players checked the 4? river and Helou turned over A?Q? for top pair. Rodin showed 7?6? and the dealer was about to push the pot to Helou until Rodin pointed out he had rivered a straight.
"Very lucky guy," Kyte said.
"I knew he had nothing on the turn," Helou replied.
