Straight Flush vs Nut Flush On Stone Bubble, No One Busts
Niveau 18
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Two players were looking at a full board that read J♠8♠7♠A♦6♦.
The action was caught as Nikolaos Iliakis, in middle position, was facing a bet of 80,000 from Juan Carlos Vecino, in the hijack. Iliakis thought for some time, explaining out loud as he did so. Given it was the stone bubble and "anything is possible", Iliakis decided to just flat call the bet, leaving himself 60,000 behind.
Vecino tabled 10♠9♠ for a flopped straight flush, while Iliakis showed A♠Q♠ for a flopped nut flush. Much to the whole tournament floor's amazement, Iliakis' flat call saved him from being the stone bubble.
