Noam Folds Flush

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante

Danny Noam was in the big blind, facing off against Anton Bertilsson on the button. The action was on the turn, with {10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} on the board. Noam checked, and Bertilsson bet 12,500.

Noam went into deep thought, counting his remaining stack. Then he lifted his cards in the air. He peeked at them one more time, but the action was evident; he was going to fold.

Eventually, Noam picked two of his cards and threw them onto the felt face-up. They were {J-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a jack-high flush and a redraw to a straight flush.

Noam, however, apparently believed that Bertilsson held a better flush and made a huge laydown.
