Sanchez Gervin raised in early position to 1,500, and the two players to his direct left, Evan Clark and Noah Goldman, both called. Action then folded to Travis Hartshorn, who put in a three-bet to 7,000.
Gervin and Clark both folded, but Goldman called a second time.
The dealer put out a monotone 8♦9♦2♦ board, and when Goldman checked, Hartshorn continued with another 7,000 bet. Goldman took the aggressive approach in his response, moving all in for 25,400. Hartshorn made the call, and, although the stacks were very similar, it was he who was at risk.
Just as the players flipped their cards, Goldman claimed that he "Just wanted to go home anyway.”
Travis Hartshorn: K♠K♥ 
Noah Goldman: 10♠7♠
While Goldman may have wanted to go home, the deck had other designs for his near future, as the turn rolled off the 6♦, improving him to a straight.
The river 7♥ was unable to rescue Hartshorn, with the chance of a split pot unforthcoming, and he gathered his belongings and headed to the exit.
