Ace-High is Good Enough for Sushant

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Aditya Sushant
Aditya Sushant

Aditya Sushant was in a chatty mood with opponent Serhii Holodiuk with action on the river. The board read {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Holodiuk had bet 11,100 into a pot of 20,000.

Sushant asked the dealer to move back so he could see Holodiuk more clearly.

"Got something?" Sushant asked. "Got ace-king?"

Holodiuk remained silent behind his sunglasses.

"Not ace-king," continued Sushant. "Maybe I have ace-king? You have a flush draw? Feels like a flush draw."

Sushant called. Holodiuk muttered something in Russian turning over {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a missed flush draw. Sushant showed {a-Spades}{q-Spades} and took down the pot.
