Mustafov Rivers a Flush to Bust Opalikhin
Level 4
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Peng Chen raised to 2,000 from the cutoff with Fahredin Mustafov calling out of the small blind, and Aleksei Opalikhin defending his big blind.
After checks from Mustafov and Opalikhin on the 3♦K♠J♦ flop, Chen bet 2,600. Mustafov check-raised to 8,000, causing Opalikhin to go into the tank briefly before he decided to three-bet to 20,000. Chen folded, but Mustafov jammed for Opalikhin's remaining 60,000 or so. Opalikhin called and the cards were shown.
Aleksei Opalikhin: K♣3♠ 
Fahredin Mustafov: A♦2♦
Opalikhin was ahead with top and bottom pair against the nut flush draw of Mustafov. The rest of the board ran out 6♣7♦, giving Mustafov the best hand with a rivered flush. The pot went Mustafov's way, and Opalikhin was out.
