An action-packed hand was kicked off with a raise from Corey Lieblein in middle position to 10,000. Both Randy Crow called from the small blind and Vincent Napolitano, from the big blind.
The dealer burned and turned three, bringing the 8♠Q♠10♠ flop. Queue fireworks.
Crow checked in the small blind before Napolitano took over the betting lead for around 18,000. Preflop aggressor Lieblein responded by moving all in for 103,000, and Crow then followed suit, moving all in for 82,000. Napolitano wasted little time in calling, and as he had the biggest stack, he put both players at risk of elimination.
Randy Crow: J♦9♠ 
Corey Lieblein: K♠Q♥
Vincent Napolitano: 10♣10♥
An ice-cold cooler, as Crow had flopped the straight, Napolitano had flopped a set, and Lieblein had top pair with a king-high flush draw.
The players all got to their feet to watch the runout.
The 6♥ had no impact, but when the J♠ rolled off on the river, Lieblein celebrated excitedly, having rivered a king-high flush.
Crow put his backpack on and started to walk away from the table, dreaming of what could have been. The dealer then turned his cards face down to add them to the muck pile.
But wait... A player not involved in the hand spoke up. "Doesn't he have a straight flush?" he asked. The dealer turned the cards back over, and Crow had indeed rivered a straight flush.
This left the table in disbelief, as the dealer apportioned the pot, giving Crow his triple up, and providing Lieblein with the side pot he had won.
