Wang Pulls A Straight Flush on the River

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We ran over to a table after we heard a loud screech, only to find Yi Wang will all his chips in the middle with {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. The board read {5-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, giving Wang a straight flush to the eight. We can only speculate about his opponent's hand, a possible ace-high flush, but we know that Wang hit the money one-outer on the river to take down a 25,000 pot and increase his stack to around 50,000.
