Puchkov Doesn't Catch his Flush
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Konstantin Puchkov has doubled up his neighbour William Todd. Todd moved all in on a 
flop for 36,700 when big blind Puchkov checked to him. He asked for a pot count from the dealer and got a spread instead (all that's allowed by way of pot estimation) - it was already around 33,000 and there had clearly been more than one raise preflop. Puchkov considered for a while, counted out the exact call, then set the stack of chips neatly in the middle.
Todd: 
for the overpair.
Puchkov: 
for one overcard to the jacks and the heart flush draw.
"Ooooh, close!" muttered more than one player on the table.
The turn and river ran out 
, giving Todd a full double through.
