Straight Over Straight
With around 550,000 in the pot and a board reading , Justin Truesdell checked from the small blind and Andrew Nguyen bet 285,000 from te big. Truesdell made a quick call and watched as Nguyen confidently turned over for a wheel.
"Oh, I have a straight," Truesdell said and revealed for an eight-high straight. Nguyen seemed a bit surprised that his opponent had him beat.
"Wow, that could have been a big pot," Lowery pointed out.
