Straight Flush of Guibert Takes Down a Flopped Nut Flush
PokerNews heard a collective gasp come from an adjacent table and arrived as the river card was being dealt.
In a pot that saw the under-the-gun player limp with a late position player limping behind, Marco Guibert in the big blind checked his option to bring out the 10♣3♣7♣ flop.
Guibert checked as did the player under the gun. The late position limper tossed out a bet and got check-raised by Guibert.
The under-the-gun player had a check-raise of his own up his sleeve and jammed to put the late position limper and Guibert at risk.
The player in late position folded but Guibert snap-called to put himself at risk and send he and the under-the-gun player to a runout.
Marco Guibert: 5♣4♣
Under The Gun: A♣9♣
Both players had flopped a flush with the under-the-gun player having flopped the nut flush, but Guibert wasn't dead as he had one out to the straight flush.
The 6♣ wasted no time in jumping off the top of the deck and landing on the turn, leaving the under-the-gun player drawing dead headed to the A♥ river.
Guibert counted out his stack and collected a full double in what became a sick runout for both players.
