An overpair for both players. But Strzemp had a better kicker. He bet $120,000. Stu had a pair and a straight draw. I think he knew Strzemp could have a better kicker but he moved all-in… The turn brought 3d. 7 outs against 20. A lucky card came on the river:
    
Thus Stu won the title for the third time. And also - $1,000,000. As he had said then: “It was a no-limit hold’em clinic”
