Straight Flush Over Quads Sees Charlton Eliminated
Ring those bad beat jackpot alarm bells!
Daniel Charlton opened from under the gun and Halil Tasyurek called from the hijack. Aliaksei Boika also called from the button, as did a player in the big blind.
They saw a flop of A♠7♦6♦ where it checked to Boika, who put out a bet of 4,000, which only Charlton and Tasyurek called.
All three checked the 7♣ turn to see the 5♦ drop on the river, where again the action checked to Boika, who fired 20,000. After some deliberation, Charlton shoved for just over 130,000, which sent Tasyurek into the tank. After around two minutes, Tasyurek elected told, and in no time at all, Boika called.
Boika confidently flipped over 9♦8♦ for a straight flush, but the table erupted as Charlton revealed 7♠7♥ for quad sevens!
"This is how they get me out of here," said Charlton.
What a sick, sick hand. Lucky Charlton has a jacket with him because that was an absolute cooler!
