After folding to three-bet shove from James Obst, John Hennigan was all in for 135,500 from the hijack seat. Obst called on the button, and the rest of the action folded through.

Hennigan: {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Obst: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The dealer fanned {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, giving Hennigan an unbeatable straight flush, and the players at the table yelled "ohhhhh." The turn and river came {4-Clubs}, {4-Hearts} respectively, and Hennigan doubled to 290,500.

Obst dropped to 195,000.
