Nitsche Feeling His House

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante
Dominik Nitsche
Dominik Nitsche

On a board of {6-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{3-Clubs} Dominik Nitsche made a bet into the pot. That prompted two other players to go all in. Nitshe had to decide if he wanted to call 10,000 more to put both players at risk. The answer was yes and he made the call. All three players flipped up their hands.

Nitsche: {k-Spades}{3-Spades}
Opponent 1: {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Opponent 2: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

Nitsche had two pair while one opponent had a flush with a straight flush draw and the other had the nut flush. Nitsche would need a king or three to fill up and get the double knock out. The turn was the {4-Spades}. But the {k-Diamonds} gave Nitsche the full house and the double knockout. Nitsche's opponents could not believe their misfortune as they headed for the door. With that Nitsche sailed to 53,000.
