The hand began with an open to 800 from the hijack. Tony Gately of No Limit Pub Poker Tour called from the cutoff before the button, and the small blind came along.

It was checked to Gately on the flop, who bet 2,000. He was called by the button before both the small blind and hijack folded.

Both remaining players checked the turn to bring the river. Gately bet 4,000 and was called by the button.

Gately showed for a straight to take down the pot.
