Shota Nakanishi raised to 16,000 from early position and Allen Kessler defended the big blind.

The flop rolled out 7♥6♣5♦ and Kessler check-called a bet of 15,000.

Both players checked the turn K♦ to the river Q♠ where Kessler bet 40,000 and Nakanishi called.

Kessler tabled 8♦5♥4♥3♣ for an eight-high straight and a seven-six low, which was good for the pot as Nakanishi tossed away his hand.
