Gelyana Flops a Flush to Stay Alive
Level 35
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Michael O'Grady made it 2,000,000 from the button and Welyam Gelyana shoved around 6,000,000 from the small blind. O'Grady called.
Welyam Gelyana: K♣9♣
Michael O'Grady: Q♦9♠
Gelyana was in the lead and would relieve some of the pressure on him if he could double up. It was all over by the time the 5♣6♣2♣ flop hit the table as Gelyana flopped the nut flush, leaving O'Grady drawing to runner-runner straight flush for a chop! That miracle didn't occur as the K♦Q♥ runout locked up the pot for Gelyana.
