Zapatero Saved by a Runner-Runner Flush

Maxime Taldir

Level 28 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Jay Hoebe under the gun opened to 300,000. Cesar Montanes Alonso in the small blind called, Luca Zapatero Martin in the big blind jammed for 245,000.

Hoebe bet 150,000 on a flop of K♠5♠J♥. Montanes check-called and they checked the 10♠ turn and the Q♠ river.

Luca Zapatero Martin: 8♠8♦ All in
Cesar Montanes Alonso: A♣10♦
Jay Hoebe: A♦K♣

Both Montanes and Hoebe rivered a straight but Zapatero hit a runner-runner flush to triple up.
