Miegel Catapults Thanks to a Fortunate Flop

Level 3 : 400/800, 100 ante

Oleg "Fukuruku" Vasylchenko raised to 1,656 from under the gun, Jakob "Succeeed" Miegel three-bet to 5,600 in the hijack and "fornado" called in the cutoff. Vasylchenko called as well and the {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop hit the virtual felt.

Action checked to Miegel, he bet 6,204 and only "fornado" called. A {9-Hearts} landed as a turn card, Miegel bet 23,406 and "fornado" called to see the {10-Spades} turn card.

Miegel shoved for more than enough to cover his opponent on the river and "fornado" hit the tank. In the end, "fornado" called, tabling {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} for a rivered straight but it was not enough when Miegel showed his {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, giving him a flush to take down the pot, adding a bounty to his stack in the process.
