'Banana Thief' commits grand larceny early on

As we continued our trek around the tables noting down the eleventy billion players that are in today's field, a tournament director nodded in our direction and pointed at table 42.

We rushed over to see a board that read {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

{j-Diamonds}

{q-Hearts}

and found Alex 'Banana Thief' Brkovic and an opponent with all their money in the middle.

The cards were revealed - the opponent showed {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{5-Diamonds}

for a flopped set but Brkovic tabled {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{7-Spades}

for a flopped straight!

The opponent is busto; Brkovic is on 19,500 in chips.
