Isrealashvili's Broadway Crushed By Flush

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Roland Isrealashvili was seen standing up and waiting for payouts as his {k-}{q-} broadway on a board of {8-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-}{j-Hearts} was inadequate against the {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} of Rodney Boswell who was scooping the large pot and surging himself toward the top of the chip counts.

His opponent was in the big blind and checked his cards on multiple occasions before eventually relinquishing them while showing the {k-Spades} face up and sending the pot across the table to Loving.

Ho Holds Off Pham

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Duy Ho
Duy Ho

The flop read {10-Spades}{9-Spades}{q-Hearts}. From middle position, David Pham bet 180,000. Duy Ho raised all in from the cutoff and the player under the gun tanked for a while before folding his hand. Pham called.

Ho had the lead with the {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for top two but would have to hold off the {a-Spades}{2-Spades} flush draw of Pham. The turn was the {j-Hearts} to also give Pham the broadway draw. But the river was a complete brick, the {3-Diamonds} and Pham's stack was decimated while Ho shot higher up the counts.
