Groth Rivers Straight and Gets Paid

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 0 ante

Tyler Groth

After a limped pot preflop, Tyler Groth bet the {J-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop for 100,000, and Jonathan Zarin called. After the {3-Clubs} turn, both players invested yet another 300,000, and there were already close to one million chips in the middle.

The {5-Clubs} river completed the board, and Groth bet 600,000. Zarin stared at his opponent and eventually called to see Groth announce six-deuce for a straight. Groth turned over {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, and Zarin sighed, turned around to his rail, and asked, "How does he have it?"
