Yockey Lays Down Nut Flush to Klostermeier's Pot-Sized River Bet

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante
Maximiliam Klostermeier
Maximiliam Klostermeier

Maximilian Klostermeier opened for 225,000 from late position and Bryce Yockey called from the big blind.

Yockey check-raised Klostermeier's bet of 175,000 to 400,000 after a {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop and Klostermeier called.

The turn fell the {a-Diamonds} and Yockey checked his option again to Klostermeier who fired out 750,000, Yockey called.

Yockey checked his option one last time on the {6-Diamonds} river and Klostermeier announced "pot" making it 2,750,00 which was almost all of Yockey's stack.

Yockey went into the tank and said, "well I know you don't have quads.. I feel like you have {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}," and thought about it for a few more minutes before tossing his hand into the muck and Klostermeier showed {a-}{9-}{x-}{x-} and Yockey said, "I knew it! I folded the nut flush with {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{x-}{x-}, good play sir."
