Myers Rivers Straight For A Knockout

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Matt Myers opened to 3,500 from under the gun. Maurice Hawkins made the call on the button and the action folded to the player in the big blind who moved all-in for just over 35,000. Myers shoved over the top and Hawkins got out of the way.

Big Blind: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Matt Myers: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{a-Spades}. The player all-in and at risk out flopped Myers with a pair of jacks. Unfortunately, he couldn't hold when the ace on the river completed a Broadway straight for Myers pocket tens.
