Nortje Gets Away With Murder
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
One last hand was still running several minutes into the break during which a large pot had unfolded between Marko Nortje and Alexandre Blanc. The former jammed the K♠Q♦J♠8♦9♠ river and Blanc went deep into the tank and burned all but two time banks before he nodded and said "okay Marko, I fold" and showed the A♦10♦.
Nortje flashed the J♥ first followed by the 10♠ for the nut (straight flush) blocker.
