Boyd Check-Raises With Nut Straight

Dutch Boyd raised to 600 from under the gun and got two callers before the cutoff seat raised to 1,900. Boyd made the call and only one of the other players called.

The flop came down {7-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {6-Spades} and action checked to the cutoff seat. He fired 3,000 with only Boyd making the call.

The turn brought the {10-Diamonds} and checks from both players.

The river was the {2-Spades} and Boyd checked. His opponent bet 6,000 and Boyd then raised to 15,000. His opponent made the call.

Boyd showed the nut straight with {9-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} in his hand and won the pot, moving to 51,000 chips.
