Strassmann Getting Crafty

Johannes Strassmann raised to 75,000 from the hijack and Allan Bække called on the button.

The flop came down {A-Hearts}

and Strassmann check-called 85,000. The turn brought the {7-Spades}

and both checked, delivering the {A-Clubs}

river card. Both checked again and Strassmann showed a winning {A-Spades}

, clearly having tried to induce Bække to bet.

Strassmann raised the next hand as well, getting no callers.
