It was the shout heard across the room.
“Oh, my God!” a player yelled.
PokerNews immediately went to the table to see multiple players standing and taking photos of a board of 6♣9♣J♣K♥9♠ in hand involving Khaly Dang and a player in middle position.
Dang was all in for her remaining 110,000 and her opponent had her covered.
The good news for Dang fell on the board, as the tabled cards told the story.
Khaly Dang: K♦9♦
Opponent: A♣K♣
Dang’s opponent flopped the nut flush, while Dang hit middle pair. The tables were then turned because Dang hit a runner-runner to come from behind to secure the hand with a full house.
According to Dang, a player under the gun raised preflop, and then the player with A♣K♣ came over the top with an all-in bet. Action folded to Dang, who was in the small blind, and she moved all in.
The original raiser folded, Dang said, resulting in the hand and her double up.

Action was caught on the turn K♣4♠10♣6♦. Brian Perzinski bet from the big blind for 225,000 and got a fold from the player under the gun. Rambo Halpern on the button thought for a while and called.
The river was the 4♣. Perzinski moved all in and Halpern fairly quickly folded. Perzinski commented that this was the worst river for him, suggesting the flush coming in stopped him from getting all the chips. He showed K♦10♠ for flopped two pair.

Daniel Benor moved all in for his remaining 315,000 and action folded to the big blind, where the player asked for a count.
The dealer confirmed Benor’s chip count, and the player in the big blind called to put Benor at risk.
Daniel Benor: 10♥10♦
Opponent: K♣9♣
The dealer fanned 10♣2♥3♣ on the board, giving Benor top set and his opponent the second nut flush draw.
The Q♠ showed up on the turn, keeping Benor in the lead. The 2♣ showed up on the river, giving Benor’s opponent the flush. But the flush was no good because the board paired to give Benor a full house of tens full of twos.
