Thomas Boivin limped in on the button with 5♥2♣, and Dario Sammartino checked his option with 10♦5♦ in the big blind.

Sammartino check-called a bet of 10,000 on the 5♠4♣3♣ flop, and the action checked through on the 2♠ turn.

The A♣ river put a straight on the board, and Sammartino led out for 80,000, double the pot size. A composed Boivin took some time before responding, but when he did act, it was for all of it as he moved all in for 268,000. Sammartino did consider his options, but elected to fold what would have been a chop.
