Villaman Almost Folds a Flush
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The pot stood at 39,500 with two players looking at a board that read 9♦8♠6♠4♠.
Ray Villaman, in early position, checked the action over to Yu Ryan, in the cutoff. Ryan bet enough to put Villaman all in for his remaining 47,800, overbetting the size of the pot.
Villaman went deep into the tank for several minutes before calling.
Ray Villaman: 9♠7♠
Ryan Yu: 10♦7♦
Yu had a straight, but he was drawing dead against the flush of Villaman. The river fell the A♠ and Villaman found the full double.
