Three-way on a flop of 4♦2♦A♦, everybody checked to find the 3♦ turn where the button bet 1,000. Maxime Obscur check-folded from the small blind, but Sophie "FunnySophie" Petrides check-called from the big blind.
The 6♣ completed the board and Petrides flipped over J♥9♦ for a flush. It was good enough to take the pot.
