Bitar Runs Into the Nut Flush
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
With around 250,000 in the pot on a board of 5♠4♥J♥Q♥, Ghassan Bitar bet 60,000 from under the gun before Ildar Tashliyev raised to 150,000 on the button.
Azamat Tulepbergenov folded the small blind, while Bitar tanked for a few minutes before moving all in for 290,000. Tashliyev snap-called and turned over A♥8♥ for the nut flush.
Bitar slammed Q♣J♣ down on the table and stood up from his seat as the 4♦ completed the board. The stacks were counted down to ensure Tashliyev had Bitar covered before Bitar headed off to the exit.
