Mark Ellerbe Likes Straight Flushes

Holding {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} Mark Ellerbe must have thought he was hallucinating when the flop came down {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Lucky for him, Sven Anders-Johnsson flopped a lower flush with the {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Ellerbe dragged a huge pot.

Anders-Johnsson was down to 70,000 after the hand, while Ellerbe was up to 150,000.

"I'd buy that guy a beer if I were you," said one of his tablemates, pointing at Ellerbe as a cocktail waitress passed by.
