Aaron Katz Rivers a Straight

Level 7 : 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em

Under the gun, Aaron Katz raised and received a call from his neighbor, Johnny Chan. All other players folded, leaving Katz and Chan to fight in a heads-up pot.

Katz checked on the {10-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{J-Spades} flop and Chan took the betting lead, earning a call from Katz.

The turn {5-Clubs} saw Katz lead out to the pot and Chan matched his bet.

Katz fired one more time on the {Q-Spades} river and Chan called again only to look at Katz' {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a big draw that had improved into a straight on the river.

Chan showed his {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}, but the pot went Katz' way.
