Goldklang Strikes Gold on the River
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Connor Drinan limped his button and Dustin Goldklang checked the big blind. On a flop of 6♦J♥7♣, Goldklang led for a bet of 200,000 and Drinan called. Goldklang then upped the sizing to a pot-sized 820,000 on the 10♣ turn, and once again Drinan matched the bet.
The river then fell the K♣ and both players now checked. "Flush," announced Goldklang, while tabling his A♥8♣4♥2♣. Drinan asked the dealer to push his opponent's cards closer, took a good look at them, shook his head, and uttered "nice hand," before adding his cards to the muck and forfeiting the pot.
