Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Dragana Mackelprang moved all in from under the gun for her remaining 595,000.

Action folded to a player in the small blind, who asked the dealer for a count. After the amount was confirmed, the player then three-bet all in, resulting in the big blind folding.

The hands were then tabled, with Mackelprang at risk.

Dragana Mackelprang: A♥8♠ All in
Opponent: A♠K♦

The dealer fanned J♥6♥J♠ on the flop, and Mackelprang begin packing up. The 9♥ on the turn opened a flush possibility for Mackelprang, but she continued packing and slowly rose from her chair.

The 7♥ on the river gave Mackelprang the nut flush and winning hand.

“Where are you going?” a player to Mackelprang’s immediate left joked.

Mackelprang gave a smile and sat back down as the dealer pushed the pot her way.
