Robert Richey and Ian Franco got it all in preflop for similar stacks.

Ian Franco: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Robert Richey: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

The {10-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop was clean for Franco, but the {5-Hearts} turn gave additional outs for Richey.

Franco needed to dodge an ace, king or deuce, but a {2-} hit the river to give Richey a straight and the knockout.
