Ace-High Gets it Done

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante

Tahsin Cankurtaranli opened to 7,000 from the hijack, which only Ahmad Naall called in the cutoff.

Cankurtaranli continued for 12,000 on the Q♥K♣8♣ flop, and another 12,000 on the J♠ turn, with Naall calling both times.

The Q♣ river then saw the action check through, with Cankurtaranli announcing ace-high, and turning over A♥2♥ for a busted flush draw. Unable to beat that, Naall mucked his cards, telling Cankurtaranli he also flopped a flush draw.
