Hughes Hits a Straight to Knock Out Avivi
Level 19
Limit Hold'em
Tal Avivi was riding a big stack just a short time ago but recently found himself all in during a hand of Limit Hold'em against Ryan Hughes.
The board showed 
when Avivi went all in and Hughes called. Avivi showed a pair of sevens, while Hughes had 
for a straight draw.
"Oh, I'm ahead," Avivi said. "Not anymore," said a tablemate as the 
on the river completed Hughes' straight and sent Avivi to the payout desk.
