With 20,000 in the middle already, Chance Kornuth bet 9,500 on a {3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} board.

His opponent, who was in the big blind, wrestled with his decision.

"Waiting for a call here, or what?" he said to Kornuth, who was peering around the dealer at him. "Such a bad river..."

Eventually, he called. "Straight," announced Kornuth, tabling {q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and that was good enough to take down the pot.
