Garcia Hits the Straight Flush

Level 9 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Tommy Nguyen raised in late position to 7,000 after a player in early position limped. The small blind and Andres Garcia in the big blind both called and the limper folded. The flop came out as 374 and the small blind checked, Garcia bet 8,800 and Nguyen called and the small blind pulled out the check raise and moved all in for 52,800, Garcia moved all in behind with the bigger stack and Nguyen folded.

Small blind: KQ All in
Andres Garcia: 54

The turn brought the flush everyone was looking for with the 6 and the river was the irrelevant K. The table did not realize at first that Garcia had the superior flush with the straight flush until someone announced it and even Garcia was suprised.
