Croffut Scoops a Big One
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
The player under the gun limped in, as did the cutoff and the button. Adam Croffut squeezed to 20,000 from the big blind, the original limper folded, the cutoff moved all in for 24,400 and both the button and Croffut called.
The 6♠6♥5♠ flop saw Croffut bet out for 15,000. The button moved all in for Croffut's effective stack of 50,200 and Croffut called.
Cutoff: K♦Q♠ 
Adam Croffut: A♠7♠
Button: K♣J♦
Croffut was surprised enough to see he was already ahead with his ace-high holding, but the flush draw provided some insurance. The buttons chants for a king came to fruition on the 5♦K♠ runout, prompting them to erupt in cheer. However, the table reminded the button that Croffut had in fact made a flush, to triple him up.
