Walton Flops a Straight

Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

In a four-way pot on a flop of 7?5?6?, 2023 WSOP Main Event final tablist Adam Walton bet 900 on the button and only Sirzat Hissou called in the small blind.
Hissou checked on the J? turn and Walton sized up to 2,500. Hissou called. Hissou checked again on the 7? river and Walton eyed his chips before pushing out a stack of yellow T-5,000 chips to put Hissou all in for his remaining 10,000.
"Ace-eight?" Walton asked.
"Better," replied Hissou.
Hissou eventually called and Walton showed the goods with 9?8? for a flopped straight as his opponent hit the rail.
