Kenjic's Honest Royal Flush
Jessica Teusl kicked things off with a raise to 4,000 from middle position, and Jovan Kenjic in the small blind called.
On the flop of K♣4♠2♥, Teusl continued with a bet of 3,000, which Kenjic check-called.
Both players checked when the Q♣ hit on the turn.
Then came the J♣ on the river. Kenjic looked at Teusl and said,"I’ll be honest, I have a straight flush."
After a quick glance at his cards, he corrected himself: "No, a royal flush. If I bet, will you call?" Teusl replied, "I’ll pay."
Kenjic led out with a small bet of 2,000, and Teusl honored her word by calling.
When Kenjic revealed A♣10♣, he wasn't lying—he indeed had a royal flush. Teusl chuckled, saying, "Good thing you corrected yourself because I had the nine of clubs and wouldn’t have believed you and get myself in trouble"
