Ravet Jams Into a Straight
Level 19
: Blinds 3,000/7,000, 7,000 ante
The action was caught with approximately 45,000 in the middle with two players looking at a board of 2?J?9?Q?.
Thibault Da Rocha, in the big blind, checked the action to Etienne Ravet, who was under the gun. Ravet bet out 26,000 and Da Rocha check-raised to 90,000.
Ravet tanked for some time before moving all in for 164,000. Da Rocha took his time, receiving a count before committing to a call.
Etienne Ravet: Q?J? 
Thibault Da Rocha: 10?8?
Ravet had top pair and a strong draw, while Da Rocha had already made a straight. The 10? river changed nothing and Ravet was sent to the rail.
