Heath Rivers the Nut Straight
Level 7
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Ben Heath raised to 8,000 from under the gun, receiving calls from Adrian Mateos on the button and Brian Kim in the big blind.
The action checked to Heath, who bet out 20,000, on the A?9?K? flop. Only Kim called.
The K? turn checked through to the Q? on the river. Kim checked again and Heath placed a bet of 150,000, enough to put Kim all in for his effective stack.
After several minutes in the tank, Kim made the call.
Brian Kim: A?8? 
Ben Heath: J?10?
The river gave Heath Broadway, sending Kim to the rail.
