Lemke's Nut Flush Not Enough Against Sitbon

David Salituro

Niveau 25 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Julien Sitbon raised to 350,000 in early position, leaving just one chip behind, and Otto Lemke called in the small blind.

The flop came 9♦Q♣Q♥ and Lemke put Sitbon all in. "Do you have that board," Sitbon said as he called.

Julien Sitbon: 7♠7♣
Otto Lemke: A♦J♦

Sitbon was ahead with two pair, but the 2♦ turn gave Lemke a flush draw. He made his flush on the 7♦ river as the dealer turned over Sitbon's cards.

"I win," Sitbon said, turning them back around and pointing out he had made a full house to double up.
