Srinivasan Spills Two With Rivered Straight

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

A three-way preflop all in was in progress as Shyam Srinivasan was the largest stack holding the {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} up against the {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts} of Nicholas Pham and the {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} of Samy Azzam.

The flop came {5-Spades}{k-Clubs}{9-Spades} to give Azzam a set but give Pham a straight draw. The turn was the {4-Hearts} and the river came the {q-Hearts} to send both Pham and Azzam home.

Azzam looked shocked, unable to believe what had just happened and his normally loquacious table presence was silenced by the river queen.
