Coelho Busts Against Same Hand as Moolhuizen Makes Royal Flush
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mateusz Moolhuizen had three-bet an earlier open to 250,000 when Claudio Coelho moved all in for 760,000 from the small blind. The initial raiser got out of the way before Moolhuizen called after a bit of thought.
Claudio Coelho: A♥Q♥ 
Mateusz Moolhuizen: A♦Q♦
Both players had ace-queen, but only Moolhuizen had a chance to scoop the pot when the J♦K♦5♣ flop appeared. Moolhuizen kindly asked for a royal flush, and his wish came true when the 10♦ hit the turn.
With Coelho's fate set in stone, he stood up as the meaningless 8♠ river completed board. Moolhuizen celebrated his royal flush as Coelho took his unlucky exit.
