The flop was {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{7-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

, giving Borteh two pair and Wong the nut straight. Wong bet and Borteh smooth-called. The turn was the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

. Now the fireworks begin. Wong bet, Borteh raised, Wong thought and Hollywood-ed for a while before re-raising and Borteh called. The river was the {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

. Wong bet, Borteh raised, Wong re-raised, and Borteh called.

Wong dragged the monster pot with his straight and his stack shot up past the 600K mark. Borteh was left with 165,000.
