Andaloussi Rivers Flush and Knocks Out Nizzardelli

Paolo Farinella raised to 300 from late position and Mustapha Rabi Andaloussi reraised to 1,800 from the small blind. Michele Nizzardelli called in the big blind and Farinella also called.

The flop came 9♠2♥J♣. Andaloussi bet 2,800, Nizzardelli called and Farinella folded. The turn came the K♣. Andaloussi bet out again for 3,900 and Nizzardelli called again.

The river was the Q♣ and this time Andaloussi checked. Nizzardelli bet 7,400, which represented a decent chunk of his remaining stack. Then, Andaloussi announced that he was all in. Nizzardelli didn't hesitate for too long before making the call.

Nizzardelli showed J♠10♣ for a straight and Andaloussi showed 6♣8♣. He had been aggressively betting his draws on previous streets and hit a flush on the river. Nizzardelli was eliminated from the tournament.
