I arrived at the table with action on the flop reading 4♣9♥8♣ and a pot of more than 400k. Big blind Victor Xie was facing a bet from button Johnny Dalphond that was big enough to put Xie all in, and he made the call.
Xie was on pocket aces, but Dalphond was open-ended to the jack-high straight with jack-ten. Dalphond paired his ten on the turn, but then spiked a 7 for the straight on the river to crack Xie’s rickets and send him to the rail.
