Henson Makes a Flush

Level 1 : 300/600, 0 ante

Omaha 8 or Better

A player in the small blind raised to 600 and Ray Henson called from the big blind to see {k-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs} on the flop. The small blind continued after the flop for 300 and Henson called quickly. The turn was {9-Clubs}.

The small blind fired another 600 at the turn and Henson called to see {3-Clubs} on the river. Both players checked and Henson showed {j-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for the ace-high flush to scoop the pot.
