Misstep for Varkonyi

Robert Varkonyi was faced with an all in bet with the board reading {2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. Varkonyi was deep in the tank when we arrived at the table, but eventually made the call.

His opponent rolled over {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for the nut-flush and Varkonyi frowned, flashed {j-}{8-} before mucking his cards.

The pot was a sizable one, but the former Main Event champion is still healthy with 26,000 chips.
