Santo Takes Late Pot Off Chip Leader

Luke Santo raised to 4,000 preflop from middle position and Dory Zayneh came along from the cutoff.

They saw a flop of {Q-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and Santo checked to Zayneh who fired out 5,000. Santo made the call. The {5-Hearts} on the turn was checked through as the {10-Clubs} hit the river. Santo led for 8,000 and Zayneh said "Your ace-king wins" as he made the crying call.

Sure enough, Santo tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} for the rivered straight to collect the pot.
