Doebs Spikes the Turn to Finish Off Chilaud

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Maxime Chilaud was moved to a new table shortly after taking the big hit against Ermanno Di Nicola and quickly got his last 240,000 in the middle from the cutoff. John Doebs called in the small blind to put him at risk.

Maxime Chilaud: QQ
John Doebs: AK

It was a classic flip as the flop came J1010, keeping Chilaud in the lead but giving Doebs a flush draw. He completed the flush on the 2 turn and smacked the table in celebration.

Chilaud needed to fill up on the river to stay alive but missed the 6 as he was sent off to the rail. Tablemate Amir Sonsino then took a photo of Doebs holding up his cards before he collected the pot.

"He had one out," Sonsino said.

"Three. A ten," Doebs pointed out.
