Julius' Turn to Double

Derek Gregory raised to 140,000 from the cutoff and was immediately met with an all-in shove for 1.295 million from Kyle Julius on the button. Both blinds got out of the way, and Gregory thought for about a minute as the tournament staff got an exact count. Eventually a call was made and Gregory did not like what he saw.

Showdown
Julius: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Gregory: {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The crowd was on its feet cheering for their respective man, and the noise got even louder when the flop fell {7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Spades} to give Gregory an open-ended straight draw.

"Six," one of his supporters yelled. While she was quite vocal, she was soon silenced as the {Q-Spades} appeared on the turn followed by the {7-Diamonds} on the river. Julius faded Gregory's draw and received a double.
