Dwan Flushes Loman

Level 20

Stud

Tom Dwan, Jacobo Fernandez and Kyle Loman all saw third street with Dwan leading the betting until Fernandez saw play hit heads-up. Dwan check-called a bet on sixth before check-raising seventh with Loman making the call.

Dwan: (X)(X) / {9-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{6-Spades} / (X)
Loman: (X)(X) / {10-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{J-Hearts} / (X)
Fernandez: (X)(X) / {7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{9-Spades} (folded on fifth)

Loman flashed his {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{X-} for a queen-high flush, but it would be Dwan's {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for the nut-flush that would see collect the pot and move to 650,000 as Loman slipped to 370,000 in chips.
