Ruban Gets Paid with Flush
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
A pot of around 20,000 had formed on the river in a hand between Ivan Ruban from the small blind and Barry Woods from the cutoff on the river.
With the board reading 10♣9♠4♥8♠4♠, Ruban jammed for his remaining 16,700 which sent Woods deep into the tank. After some time, Woods decided to call him down with his big stack and the hands were revealed.
Ivan Ruban: J♠7♠ 
Barry Woods: K♣10♠
Ruban had rivered a flush while Woods got sticky with his top pair and Ruban was able to find the full double at the expense of Woods.
