Porter Can't Dodge a Flush

Rep Porter raised preflop to 2,500 and was called by the big blind. The big blind checked the flop dark, which came {A-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}. Rep checked behind. Both players checked the {4-Diamonds} turn, and the big blind checked a third time on the {J-Hearts} river. Porter bet 4,000 and was raised by the big blind to 10,000. He made the call only to see the bad news -- the big blind made a nut flush with {A-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}.

Porter now has about 119,000 chips.
