Mackoff Correctly Folds a Flush
Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Jonas Mackoff raised to 26,000 from middle position, and Will Givens called from the cutoff before Dennis Brand three-bet to 87,000 from the big blind.
Mackoff called before Givens folded and the flop fell 
. Both players checked, and after the 
hit the turn, Brand bet 75,000.
Mackoff called and saw the 
hit the river, which signaled Brand to move all in for around 500,000.
"I can beat a straight," said Mackoff with anguish on his face over the decision he had to make.
Mackoff studied the board for close to a minute before he made his mind up.
"Fold," said Mackoff, and tabled 
for a flush.
"Nice fold," said Brand and revealed 
for a full house.
Brand took in the pot to move up to 900,000, while Mackoff thanked Brand for showing his hand.
