Almeida Doubles with the Nut Flush
Level 37
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
The action was picked up on a board of Q♥6♣3♥A♦8♥ with approximately 2,000,000 in the pot with Martynas Brazdzionis in the big blind who bet 1,400,000 and Ivo Almeida in the small blind who check-raised all-in for 2,565,000.
According to a player at the table, it was a limped blind versus blind situation where Almeida fired two barrels.
Brazdzionis went deep into the tank and eventually called with Q♦6♦, but Almeida had A♥2♥ for the nut flush. He doubled up while Brazdzionis was left on fumes with 105,000. He moved all-in from the big blind in the next hand and managed to triple up.
