With the board reading {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{J-Clubs}, Rory Monahan check-raises Mike Schwartz's 60,000 bet to a total of 200,000. After a customary rub of the chin, Schwartz makes the call.

On the {K-Diamonds} turn, Monahan pushes all in for 370,000.

"Flush draw?" inquires Schwartz.

Monahan shakes his head.

"Have you looked?" asks Schwartz. "That's a good sign".

Eventually he folds and Monahan takes the pot.
