"Allyoucaneat":
"Razorgoto":

"Allyoucaneat" had called off their stack with top two pair and needed only to fade running diamonds, eights, kings, or an ace-queen runout in order to stay alive via chop or double. The turn left them with just two chop outs to fade, and the river was safe to earn them the double.
