Royal Flush For Hassabis

Level 1 : 200/300, 0 ante

Three-way to the {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} river with 3,000 in the middle, Demis Hassabis checked out of the small blind and Roman Valerstein, as well as Noah Schwartz, checked back. Hassabis rolled over his cards and announced a full house as well as a straight, but only when the cards were exposed he noticed that his {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} had indeed made a royal flush.

"I knew I had the ace of clubs," Hassabis said in table chat while Valerstein and Schwartz just grinned.
