Messina Hits a Runner-Runner Straight Flush

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Renato Messina
Renato Messina

Renato Messina had just played the biggest pot of the tournament up till now and his table mate was kind enough to relay the information.

Messina had opened from the early position for 1,800 and was called by four other players to go five-way to the flop which was the {10-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. It was checked to the player on the button who bet 5,000 and only Messina called.

The turn was the {q-Clubs} and both players checked.

The river completed the board with the {9-Clubs}, Messina fired a bet of 18,000 over the line and the player on the button shoved for around 100,000. Messina snap-called with {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the runner-runner straight flush and saw he was good as his opponent had {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for the turned full house.

Table #14 was broken up in the meanwhile and Taoufik Ahkim has taken his seat on Messina's left for the two biggest stacks in the room to be seated next to each other.
