Daly Messes Around and Makes a Straight to Approach Chip Lead
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 10,000 ante
Four ways to a limped flop of A?4?5?, Jason Daly checked his K?J?7?5? in the small blind.
Sung Keem checked in the big blind and Carson Wieland bet 70,000 with A?A?9?8? having flopped top set in early position.
Ray Henson folded the button, Daly made the call, and Keem folded.
On the 6? turn, Daly check-called a bet of 110,000 to see the 8? fall on the river, giving him a straight.
Daly checked again and Wieland bet 305,000 holding the A? amidst his set.
Daly thought for a couple of minutes, telling Wieland that he was just messing around and made a straight.
Ultimately he called and his straight was good to boost his stack over two million and push him toward Thai Ha's chip lead.
