Giacalone Rivers a Boat to Bust Nut Flush

Level 1 : 100/100, 100 ante

Action was picked up as Riccardo Giacalone put in a raise to 1,100 from the big blind. He got calls from the players in early and late position, giving three way action to the flop.

On the {7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} flop, Giacalone checked, and the early position player fired for 2,500, getting calls from both other players.

On the {10-Diamonds} turn, the early position player continued, this time for 3,000. Again, both other players called.

On the {9-Hearts} river, Giacalone took a pause to take a sip from his water bottle, before announcing that he was all-in. The early position player thought briefly before making the call, after which the late position player folded quickly.

Giacalone turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}, giving him a full house. His opponent showed {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, good for the nut flush, but not good enough for the pot.

"How can I fold that?" his opponent asked rhetorically, letting out a small chuckle after, seemingly still in high spirits, while Giacalone scooped the pot.
