Nicolas Pinard Hits a Flush

Maxime Taldir

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/4,000, 4,000 ante

Hervé Gouzil opened to 9,000 from middle position. Roland Rozel on the button called and Nicolas Pinard defended from the big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of A♦8♥J♦ and Gouzil bet 7,500. Both Rozel and Pinard called, and all three of them checked the 5♦ turn.

Pinard led out for 30,000 on the Q♥ river. Gouzil was the only one to call with A♥J♥ but lost to Pinard's flush with 10♦6♦.
