Bednar's Straight Beats Rockets

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

With a board of {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, Jan Bednar put in enough chips on the river to put his opponent all-in.

His opponent tanked and eventually, the clock was called on him. As the tournament director counted down towards zero, his opponent put in the chips.

Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Jan Bednar: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Bednar had the nuts to beat the aces and scoop the pot of around 160,000 chips while his opponent hit the rail.
