Rebibo Almost Takes Two Out

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Ben Burnhill shoved all in for 25,000 from mid-position and so did Jason Glatzer in the cutoff with the bigger stack. Pinchas Rebibo called in the small blind with a similar stack to see all the cards go on their backs.

Ben Burnhill: {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Jason Glatzer: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}
Pinchas Rebibo: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}

The flop came {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{10-Spades} to give Burnhill the straight draw to stay alive.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} which now gave both Glatzer and Rebibo the flush draw with Rebibo holding the ace for the nut-flush.

The river completed the board with the {2-Clubs} which gave both Glatzer and Rebibo the flush indeed with Rebibo having the nuts. Burnhill was done and so was Glatzer as far as he was aware as he got up from his chair until he got told that he probably had Rebibo covered. The dealer counted it all out again and after paying Rebibo the double-up, Glatzer was left with 3,900 which he lost shortly after.

The board ran out {a-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} for Grella's queen to hold and eliminate Yerema from the Grand Event.
