Yalcin Flops Flush

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Picking up the action on the flop, Fausto Tantillo in middle position was involved in a hand with Hasan Yalcin one seat over. With the board reading {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts} Tantillo led out for 35,000 only for Yalcin to respond by jamming all in. Tantillo did not seem too happy with the situation but did make the call. Yalcin turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for the second nuts, prompting Tantillo to ask "muck?" but as Yalcin was all in and at risk that was not an option.

Hasan Yalcin: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Fausto Tantillo: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Tantillo was drawing extremely thin, needing to find a runner-runner full house or quads. The {5-Spades} turn rendered the {6-Diamonds} river a mere formality as Yalcin received a full double at Tantillo's expense.
