Gal Bar raised from late position to 80,000, and Kevin Huang three-bet to 200,000 from the cutoff. Bar made the call. The flop came out with 5♥8♦K♣, and Bar checked, while Huang bet out 85,000. Bar called.

On the turn 6♣, Bar checked again, and Huang made it 260,000. Bar made the call.

The river 9♠ brought another check by Bar, and Huang checked behind. Bar expressed some anguish as he flipped over 9♦7♦ for the straight. Huang turned over K♦Q♦ for a pair of kings.
