Ricky Guan raised the hijack to 7,000 and Andrew Lichtenberger called from the cutoff. Daniel Negreanu came along from the big blind and it was three-way action to the {9-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} flop.

All three players checked and the {6-Diamonds} appeared on the turn. Negreanu checked, Guan bet 22,000, and Lichtenberger got out of the way.

Negreanu woke up with a check-raise to 50,000 and Guan called to see the {a-Diamonds} river.

Negreanu bet 65,000 and Guan burned through a time extension before just calling.

"Straight," Negreanu said before tabling the {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for a flopped straight. Unfortunately for him, Guan had the {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a flopped two pair that turned into a runner-runner flush.

"Oh, what a flop," Negreanu said before sending over the chips.
