John Michalak has built himself quite a stack. We were eyeing it up when we happened to catch him in a pretty big pot.

With around 75,000 in the middle and a board reading {5-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}, Michalak checked and his opponent did the same. When the {4-Hearts} completed the board on the river, Michalak bet a healthy 30,000, and his opponent didn't seem too excited.

"Well, I guess I'll pay you off," he said before guessing Michalak had rivered a flush. That wasn't the case though as Michalak had a better hand with the {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. The full house of Michalak was good as his opponent shook his head and mucked.
