Raffoul Makes the Right Fold

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Osman Midik and an opponent put in 18,000 on a flop of {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} before Edgard Raffoul, in the small blind, raised to 47,000.

Only Midik called as the dealer turned over the {q-Clubs} turn, one player's Tasmanian devil figurine that he uses as a card protector standing in front of the board.

Raffoul bet another 29,000 and Midik called. Raffoul slowed down and checked the {9-Diamonds} river and Midik fired out 65,000.

Raffoul spent about two minutes in the tank before he folded the {k-Clubs} face up. Midik showed him {10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a flush as he took in the top.
