Hoenig Quarters Biedak After Emotional Roller Coaster
Level 32
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Joshua Biedak opened to 875,000 on the button, leaving 900,000 behind.
"Good luck Josh" Ryan Hoenig told his opponent from the big blind before shoving with a covering stack. Biedak snap-called and was at risk.
Joshua Biedak: A♠Q♦10♣9♦2♦ 
Ryan Hoenig: A♥9♥7♦6♥2♠
"Yes, nine-ten!" Biedak exclaimed upon seeing the 7♥6♦8♠ flop, being virtually guaranteed three quarters of the pot with the nut-straight and same low as Hoenig; The 9♠ turn improved Hoenig to two pair before the 6♠ landed on the river, giving Hoenig a full house to take three quarters of the pot in brutal fashion.
"Oh my god" Biedak commented with a bewildered expression as half his stack was pushed over to Hoenig.
