Joven Skead moved all in for 12,500 from the cutoff and Wade Schlecht called in the small blind.
Joven Skead: A♥10♥ 
Wade Schlecht: Q♦8♦
Schlecht hit trips on the Q♥Q♣J♥ flop, while the turn was the 9♦. Skead needed help on the river to stay alive, and he not only improved but spiked the K♥ to make a Royal Flush.
