One Hand, One Stack Gone

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Louis Dochwat
Louis Dochwat

On the first hand of the day, the big blind led out for 1,100 on a flop of 4♥5♥A♥ and another opponent under the gun raised to 4,500. Louis Dochwat called in the cutoff, while the big blind got out of the way.

The turn was the 10♣ and the under-the-gun player bet 11,000. Dochwat then moved all in. "That's not good," his opponent said, but he eventually called.

Dochwat turned over K♥2♥ for the nut flush, and his opponent could only show 9♥7♥. The river was the 5♦, and Dochwat earned the knockout.
