Ricquebourg Nearly Felts Miah with Ace-High Flush
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
There was already 5,000 in the pot on a 
board with four players still in the hand. Mohamed El Hamdi, from the big blind, put out a bet of 2,500. Erick Sarkis called from under the gun and Jean Ricquebourg also came for the ride from early position. Ashique Miah, on the button, also called.
Going four ways to the river, the 
completed the board. El Hamdi and Sarkis both checked to Ricquebourg, who bet 9,000. Miah, who only had 12,400 behind, pondered his decision for over a minute before making the call. The other two players called.
Ricquebourg turned over 
for the ace-high flush and the win, nearly felting Miah. Miah would be eliminated a short time later.
