With 59,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, Tyler Groth checked from the small blind and Alex Foxen bet the pot from the big blind, leaving himself only about 12,000 chips behind. Groth called.

The {3-Clubs} fell on the turn and Groth checked. Foxen checked behind.

The river brought the {Q-Hearts} and Groth checked again. Foxen moved all in and after a few moments, Groth folded.

Foxen rolled over the {A-Diamonds}, and quickly thereafter the {4-Clubs} as well. He slowly inched his last two hole cards towards the muck, and just before releasing them, he flipped them over to show {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the rivered nut straight.
