Nylander's Winning Hand Nearly Mucked
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Mats Nylander and Anton Suarez had already built of pot of around 60,000 as they went heads-up to the river on a board of A♦Q♣J♠5♠2♠.
Suarez, in the big blind, led out for 4,000 and Nylander quickly tossed in a chip to call. Suarez then turned over A♥Q♠9♥2♣ for two pair.
Nylander showed 10♠8♠5♦2♦ and the dealer flipped over his cards and went to award the pot to Suarez. "I win," Nylander pointed out.
"He had a flush," Suarez added as Nylander's cards were turned back over and the pot pushed in his direction.
