Michelle Flushes Podell in Dramatic Fashion

Tiffany Michelle over three million chips
Tiffany Michelle over three million chips
Marc Podell opened with a raise to 60,000 before Tiffany Michelle made it 227,000 to go from the hijack position. The action folded around to Podell who moved all in for 433,000. Michelle made the call.

Podell: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Michelle: {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

The flop came {7-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} to give Michelle a monster -- top pair and nut-flush draw. However the turn fell the {10-Clubs} to give Podell a two-outer for a set of tens to take the lead as the gallery roared. But in a classic suck-resuck moment, the roof of the Rio was lifted as Michelle hit the {3-Diamonds} on the river to complete her flush and eliminate Podell in amazing circumstances.

Michelle is now up amongst the chip leaders with three million in chips!
