Sung Finds Straight on the River to Eliminate Shoreman

No-Limit Hold'em

All the chips were committed to the pot preflop in what would be Jonathan Shoreman's last hand of the tournament, care of Steve Sung.
Sung: {a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Shoreman: {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Shoreman was likely feeling good about things when he saw he had Sung dominated. The flop came down {j-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Spades}, and Shoreman's confidence may have still been good. With the {5-Clubs} on the turn, Shoreman would have the best hand so long as a four or deuce didn't come on the river. But as fate would have it, the river was the {2-Hearts}, giving Sung a straight and Shoreman a ticket home.
