Song Check-Raises with Nut Flush, Gets Paid Off

WSOP bracelet winner Stephen Song raised to 12,000 in early position and was called by the chip leader at the table.

After the rest of the players folded, the dealer placed 10♠8♥6♥ on the board, which Song checked. His opponent bet 20,000, and Song called.

The turn produced the 5♥, which led to both players checking to the river. The dealer put the 3♦ on the board, and Song checked. His opponent bet 44,000, and then Song check-raised to 179,000. Song’s opponent alternated between looking at Song and the board for a few seconds before reaching for chips and making the call.

Song tabled A♥6♥ for the nut flush, causing his opponent to shake his head and show 10♥7♥ for an inferior flush.
