Stewart Takes from Sklenicka

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Joining the action in a battle of the blinds between Michael Sklenicka and Scott Stewart on the {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} flop, Sklenicka checked and called a bet of 240,000 from Stewart. Both checked the {7-Spades} turn, and Sklenicka also checked the {K-Clubs} river.

"Do you have any frisbees?" Stewart asked and leaned over to see the stack of Sklenicka, then clarified that he meant the bigger T500,000 chips. Stewart bet 1,125,000, and Sklenicka immediately said, "I hate to be a calling station."

After more than two minutes of consideration, the Czech called, and Stewart turned over {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} for a straight to win the pot.
