Chuck Knows Poker

From middle position, Chris Tryba came in raising to 22,000. Action came around to big blind Charles Williams, and he elected to call, creating a heads-up confrontation.

The flop brought {8-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {10-Hearts}. Williams immediately grabbed all 149,000 of his remaining chips and slid them forward. Just as quickly came the, "I call" from Chris Tryba.

Showdown:
Tryba: {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs}
Williams: {7-Diamonds} {9-Spades}

It took Tryba just a minute to realize the bad news as someone mumbled, "He flopped the straight."

"Nice hand, Charles. Nice hand," said Tryba, but there were still two cards to come. The {Q-Diamonds} on the turn added some dangerous outs for Tryba. To Williams' salvation though, the blank {4-Hearts} hit the river, and the poker room manager at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno has doubled up in a timely fashion.
