Paul Spitzberg Gets Rivered
Jerry Callahan opens for 350 utg, getting calls from Paul Spitzberg, (above) seat 5, Alan Kraut (button), Jonas Wexler (sb), and the big blind.
The flop comes and they check it to Paul, who fires 1,050. Seat 5 calls, Alan folds, Jonas calls, the big bling folds, and Jerry calls. Turn is the . They check it to Paul who fires 4k. Seat 5 folds, Jonas folds, and Jerry calls.
River is the and both Jerry and Paul check. Jerry shows for the straight. "How does that nine come?!?!" laments Paul, as he throws his on the felt. He had turned the Jack-high straight, but Jerry rivered the King-high straight.
Jerry Callahan - 27,500
Paul Spitzberg - 28,600
