The completed board was down {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}{k-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and there was around 60,000 in the middle.

Aaron Mermelstein had checked from the small blind and saw Justin Bonomo bet 200,000 from the hijack.

"I don't think I can fold this," said Mermelstein, sat with 160,000 behind.

Mermelstein went back into deep thought for close to 90 seconds but then called.

Bonomo revealed {8-Spades}{9-Spades} for a flush, but was behind against Mermelstein's nut flush with {a-Spades}{10-Spades}.

Mermelstein received the full double and Bonomo was left with 240,000.
