Thomas Miressi kicked things off from the button and found a caller in Dennis Weiss in the big blind.
Weiss check-called Miressi’s bet on the K♥Q♠8♦ flop.
The turn brought the 2♥, and Weiss checked again. Miressi continued, but this time Weiss raised, and Miressi made the call.
On the J♥ river, Weiss led out with a bet, and Miressi raised, leaving himself with just 65,000 behind. Weiss took his time before making the call.
Miressi shouted, “I finally rivered something,” and tabled A♠10♣ for a rivered straight, good enough to scoop the pot.
