Rui Sun was all-in after the 9♣4♣2♦7♦ turn and Kaihua Liu called with the covering stack in the next seat. It was a very close race with Liu in a marginal lead holding the K♦9♦ for top pair. Sun, however, had many outs holding the 8♣6♣ for the open-ended straight draw.
One of the outs came with the 10♣ river which completed the straight and the flush.
