Carless "G.I. Joe" Boatwright raised it up after a few players called to his blind. One player on the button made the call, and Boatwright announced a dark check. His opponent moved all in dark, and the dealer rolled out {8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Boatwright called.

Boatwright: {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Button: {k-Spades}{9-Spades}

Both players had seen great flops for their hands despite starting with mediocre holdings. A {q-Hearts} changed nothing on the turn, but the river was a {6-Clubs}, completing Boatwright's straight.
