Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Chance Kornuth opened 33,000 in the cutoff, and both Najeem Ajez on the button, and Robert Cowen in the big blind made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of 8♦7♠5♣, and once checked to, Ajez fired 40,000. Cowen and Kornuth snap-mucked.

"Above average flop," claimed Ajez as he was about to muck.

"Show then," Kornuth responded.

Ajez obliged, tabled 10x9x8x8x for top set, and an open-ended straight draw.
