Level 12
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
We just came on an interesting situation involving three players vying for a pot of about 20,000 with the board showing 
.
John Holley had led with a bet of 5,000 from the blinds, then Patrick Houchins made it 12,000 from middle position. Jennifer Alpaugh, playing from the button, tanked for a while before calling, and Holley shrugged and tossed out the calling chips as well.
Houchins quickly tabled 
for the nut flush, and Alpaugh mucked her hand. Holley then nodded as he quickly showed his hand — 
. "Wow, second nuts," said another player, adding how he thought the pot could've gotten bigger.
That hand pushes Houchins up over the 160,000-chip mark.
