Wright's Boat Fills Up on River

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

Action was picked up after Scott Wright moved all in from the small blind for around 7,000. He got a call from a player in early position who was the short stack with around 3,000 left. The middle position player tanked for a bit, before reluctantly making the lay down.

Opponent: {q-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Scott Wright: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Wright had turned over his kings first, to which his opponent remarked "I got kings too... but they don't look like kings," as he turned over his hand.

The {j-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop gave the opponent a gutshot straight draw. "I hope you make a set," he told Wright, as the king would complete his straight. The {6-Spades} paired the board before the {k-Clubs} hit on the river. The opponent had gotten his wish, Wright had made a set and he had completed his straight, but the paired board gave Wright a full house, enough to beat his opponent's Broadway straight, and send him to the rail.
