Background & highlights

In the Full Tilt Million Dollar Cash Game filmed in London in 2009 (blinds $1,000/$2,000, $200 ante), Tom Dwan (button) held 7♥6♥ and Phil Ivey (small blind) held A♣2♥. On a Q♣3♦5♣ flop and 4♥ turn, Dwan made the nut 3-4-5-6-7 straight while Ivey made a 5-high A-2-3-4-5 straight and was drawing dead when he got all-in; the river was J♥. Dwan won the ~$1.1 million pot with the nut straight, recognized at the time by Guinness World Records as the largest pot on televised poker.
