Toan Claims a Straight
Level 13
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sam Grafton made it 35,000 to go from the small blind and Robbie Toan called from the big blind. The flop came 
and both players checked to the 
on the turn.
Grafton led out for 18,000 and Toan stuck around to see the 
on the river. Grafton fired out another bet of 28,000 only to have Toan raised to 100,000. With four cards to a straight on the board, Grafton ditched his cards.
"I called the turn and hit a gut-shot on the river," Toan announced.
"I had two jacks. That's hard to do," was Grafton's response.
