Royal Flush for Patel
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
After a royal flush in the closing stages of the tournament last night, incredibly, there has been another one over on Table 3. Jay Patel was the man at the centre of the action with 
in the hole and he kindly relayed how the hand played out.
There was a 3,400 open and Patel and one other called behind. The flop was 
and there was a continuation bet of 2,500, which Patel called.
On the 
turn, Patel had improved to a flush draw and a gutshot. He flat called another bet, this time for 7,500. His opponent check-folded to a 10,000 bet on the 
river but Patel showed the royal flush to the table. The pot, though not a big one, puts him around 30,000 chips above average.
