Monkey Gets Straightened Out

Will "Monkey" Souther limped under the gun and the player in Seat 3 followed suit. The button then put in a raise to 725 and both Souther and Seat 3 made the call. All three players proceeded to check the {K-Hearts}{6-Spades}{K-Diamonds} flop, leading to the {4-Clubs} on the turn.

Souther led out with a bet of 600 and both his opponents opted to call. The {8-Spades} appeared on the river and Souther continued with a bet of 1,100. Seat 3 thought about it for a minute then mucked, while the button quickly raised to 3,675. Souther seemed perplexed and asked his opponent for a count. Eventually he made the call and then mucked in frustration as the button showed {5-Hearts}{7-Spades} for a runner-runner straight.

Souther dropped down to around the original starting stack of 20,000.
