Al-Shanti Hits a Flush to Double Off Forrest
Level 13
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Big O
Abdullah Al-Shanti moved all in for his last 28,500 on a flop of J♣8♠5♠ and Ted Forrest called in early position.
"I have a flush draw. Do you have the nut flush draw," Al-Shanti asked as he turned over K♣K♥Q♠7♠4♥. Forrest shook his head and exposed his A♠A♣J♦4♣3♥.
The 9♠ on the turn completed Al-Shanti's flush. "Give me as high as you have in the deck," Al-Shanti pleaded with the dealer as the K♦ fell on the river, giving him the entire pot.
"I would've bet 3-1 the money was going in after he lost the last one," a tablemate said to Al-Shanti after the hand.
"I'm not on tilt. I promise," Al-Shanti said as he raked in the double up.
