According to the players, John Richards opened the pot for 3,500 from early position, Farah Galfond called in position.

The flop was 6?8?4? and Richards continued for 4,000, which Galfond called.

The turn was the 2? and Richards bet again, this time for 7,000. Galfond again called.

The river was the 7?. Richards now checked and Galfond put him all in for roughly 17,000. Richards thought about it for a while and then called. Galfond showed 5x5x for the turned double gutshot and rivered straight. Richards mucked his and was sent packing; he later said he had pocket jacks.
