On a flop of {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Clubs} Stan Dannijs bet 1,100 which was raised by Steven Wendt to 3,100, Dannijs called.

The {4-Spades} prompted Dannijs to regain the betting lead by a 6,000 bet that was called by Wendt. Dannijs bet 6,500 on the {6-Spades} river that was quickly called by Wendt.

Dannijs rolled over {2-Spades}{3-Spades} for a runner-runner flush to the bemusement of Wendt who mucked his cards. Wendt questioned Dannijs play by asking "What are you looking for on the flop?"
