Toth Rivers a Flush
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Samuel Dray started the action with a raise to 16,000 from early position, but Iurii Okolovich responded by three-betting to 43,000 from the cutoff. Istvan Toth, on the button, made the call, while Dray folded.
Both players checked the 2♥9♥8♠ flop.
When the 8♥ hit the turn, Okolovich fired a hefty 68,000 bet, and Toth called.
The K♥ landed on the river, and both players checked again, heading to showdown. Okolovich revealed A♣K♦ for a pair of kings, but Toth showed Q♠Q♥, rivering a flush. Okolovich could only shake his head, realizing he had been behind the whole time.
