Tyler Foran

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Assaf Markus: K♠K♥ All in
Anthony Comand: A♥Q♠

The J♦10♦9♣ flop gave Comand an open-ended straight draw while Markus picked up a gutshot. The 7♥ turn changed nothing, and the Q♦ river imrpoved Markus to a straight as he raked in the double.
