OMG a Straight

Same table, but no one ran to the bathroom during this hand.

With the board reading {7-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{A-Spades} on the turn, Juha Helppi checked to Phil Galfond, who bet 12,000. Helppi called. The river was the {8-Spades} and Helppi check-called Galfond's 27,000 bet.

Galfond showed {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for the rivered straight and took his stack back up to 108,000. Helppi was left with 29,000.
