Straight Flush of Guibert Takes Down a Flopped Nut Flush

Niveau 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

PokerNews heard a collective gasp come from an adjacent table and arrived as the river card was being dealt.

In a pot that saw the under-the-gun player limp with a late position player limping behind, Marco Guibert in the big blind checked his option to bring out the 10♣3♣7♣ flop.

Guibert checked as did the player under the gun. The late position limper tossed out a bet and got check-raised by Guibert.

The under-the-gun player had a check-raise of his own up his sleeve and jammed to put the late position limper and Guibert at risk.

The player in late position folded but Guibert snap-called to put himself at risk and send he and the under-the-gun player to a runout.

Marco Guibert: 5♣4♣
Under The Gun: A♣9♣

Both players had flopped a flush with the under-the-gun player having flopped the nut flush, but Guibert wasn't dead as he had one out to the straight flush.

The 6♣ wasted no time in jumping off the top of the deck and landing on the turn, leaving the under-the-gun player drawing dead headed to the A♥ river.

Guibert counted out his stack and collected a full double in what became a sick runout for both players.
