Swann Flops a Royal Flush!
Level 6
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was relayed to PokerNews after a wild hand at table 6 between Lauchlan Swann and Jarrod Thatcher.
An open to 2,400 was called to see the J♠A♠Q♠ flop, where 1,200 from each player went into the middle. A pair of checks followed the 8♦ turn before an all in and call on the 8♣ river.
Thatcher showed J♥8♥ for a full house on the river, while the table reacted in amazement as Swann revealed K♠10♠ for a flopped royal flush.
Thatcher was eliminated, but quickly reentered and was back in the very same seat.
