Chuck Truck Fills Up the Tank

Charles Chua open-shoved all in for 425,00. Action folded to Mikael Rosen who quickly announced all in himself. He gave a fist bump to Chua and the cards were opened:

Rosen: {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}
Chua: {J-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}

With Rosen standing and Chua sitting, the dealer burned and turned the flop. It came {10-Spades} {Q-Spades} {7-Clubs}, missing Rosen and giving Chua an open-ended straight draw. The turn {8-Clubs} filled his straight. Only a jack on the river would allow Rosen to overtake Chua by making a better straight. That didn't happen; the river was the {A-Diamonds}. Chua doubled up to about 900,000.
