Svoboda Shows Down the Nuts
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Three-handed on a flop of 10♠5♦6♠, Ilhan Altincik bet 49,000 from the cutoff and was called by Nenad Jovanovic in the big blind and Petr Svoboda under the gun.
The turn came the 7♠ and Svoboda splashed in his last 40,000. Altincik quickly called, while Jovanovic got out of the way.
Altincik turned over Q♣5♥5♣3♥ for a set, but Svoboda had A♠K♥10♣5♠ for the turned nut flush. Altincik needed the board to pair on the river to score the knockout but instead saw the 2♥ fall as Svoboda doubled up.
