Shushan Rivers a Flush to Send Montagnolli Out

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Daniel Montagnolli
Daniel Montagnolli

Daniel Montagnolli made it 12,000 to go from middle position and Yaniv Shushan defended his big blind.

They went to a flop of K98 where Shushan check-called a bet of 18,000 from Montagnolli to see the 6 drop on the turn, where Shushan checked again. Montagnolli then shoved for 66,000, and Shushan had a decision to make.

"I have a pair and a flush draw," said Shushan, which seem to unsettle Montagnolli and made the table laugh.

"Do you want me to call?" Shushan asked. "Sure," replied Montagnolli. So, Shushan did stick in the call.

Daniel Montagnolli: AA All in
Yaniv Shushan: J6

"Run it twice?" joked Shushan.

Unfortunately for Montagnolli, running it twice wasn't an option, but he would have liked it to be as the 10 on the river eliminated him as Shushan improved to a flush.
