Klis Sends Two More to the Rail

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Erik Klis (from a previous event)
Erik Klis (from a previous event)

Erik Klis is back on top of the counts after busting two players in a recent big pot.

With a board reading {7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}, Klis bet 37,000, enough to put Jason Nablo all in, Nablo made the call, but then Anthony Koch check-shoved for about 125,000.

Klis took a moment before announcing a call.

Erik Klis: {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Jason Nablo: {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Anthony Koch: {q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Koch had the best of it at the time but Klis had a big draw. Nablo was most in trouble needing a miracle. Klis would make his flush on the river to scoop another sizeable pot.
