Straight Flush for Patel

Picking up the action on the {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop, Emil Patel bet 16,000 before Juha Vilkki put in a raise to 46,000. Patel made the call and the turn brought the {10-Clubs}. Patel checked fourth street and Vilkki bet 75,000. Patel made the call.

The river was the {7-Clubs} and Patel led for 200,000. Vilkki made the call and was shown the absolute nuts by Patel, who tabled the {Q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a straight flush. Vilkka mucked.

Straight flushes have been a common occurrence for Patel throughout this tournament, as he made two yesterday, including a royal flush on the river to crack his opponent's full house.
