Nenad Medic Sucks Out A Win

All the money got in preflop and Nenad Medic's pocket 10s were trailing his opponent's aces.

The flop of {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} gave Medic outs, which didn't come with the {Q-Hearts} on the turn. The river was kind though, bringing the {8-Diamonds} and giving Medic the straight. He now has 165,000.
