Unlucky Chop for Morrison

Kirk Morrison raised to 275,000 and Guy Laliberte called. The flop was {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Morrison quickly moved all-in and Laliberte called. Morrison showed the {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a set of eights, while Laliberte held the {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} for the nut flush draw. The turn was the {9-Diamonds}, but the river was the {6-Clubs} putting a 9-high straight on the board and they chopped the pot.
