In this hand, our hero Scott Blumstein defends his big blind with Ace-Four offsuit. By the river, there is a King-high straight on the board, but Scott has the nuts...how should he proceed? 2017 World Champ Scott Blumstein reviews Hand #118 from the Main Event.

NOTE: In all these Scott Blumstein Hand Reviews, the best learning experience is achieved by pausing the video at each decision point, and thinking through the situation BEFORE listening to Scott's comments.

In the future, the Advanced Poker Training "Combat Trainer" will help you practice a situation much like this one. While at the moment it's not possible to practice this exact scenario (a straight on the board), we can use the Final Table Trainer to practice defending our big blind with A-4 offsuit:
