Straight Flush on the Board Keeps Pappas Alive

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Steve Pappas
Steve Pappas

Steve Pappas shoved from the cutoff for 13,500 and was called by Andrew Miller on the button and Miray Badaoui in the small blind.

The flop came {5-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}, both Badaoui and Miller checked.

The turn was the {6-Spades}, Badaoui bet and Miller quickly folded so the cards could go on their backs.

Steve Pappas: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}
Miray Badaoui: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}

They both held a flush but Babaoui had the nut flush.

The river completed the board with the {3-Spades} for Pappas to cheer loudly and high five another player as the straight flush on the board meant that he and Badaoui would chop the pot.
