Mordaunt Flushes Saab

David Saab opened the pot with a raise once more, and this time he found five callers.

The flop came {10-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}. Action was checked around through Saab to Peter Mordaunt, and he shoved all 6,000 of his chips in. When it folded back around to Saab, he announced, "I snap-call!" and matched his declaration by moving his calling chips in. He turned over {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}, while Mordaunt was drawing with his {A-Clubs} {4-Clubs}.

The turn was a useless {10-Diamonds}, but the {J-Clubs} nailed the river, making Mordaunt his nut flush. He doubles up through Saab, climbing back to 15,000 courtesy of that friendly river card.
