Kornuth Gets Flushed out of the Mystery Bounty
Three players arrived at the river, as the board read 4♣9♣J♣7♠2♥. First to act Chance Kornuth checked, and Taylor Black bet out for 12,000 into a pot of 15,000. Richard Scardina asked for a count before letting go of his cards, and after over a minute of thinking, Kornuth stacked up his chips and pushed them forward, announcing “all in” for 38,000.
Black practically beat him into the pot, as he chucked in a singular chip and almost guiltily flipped over A♣7♣, showing he flopped the stone cold nuts, and kept them to the river.
Kornuth, forced to show his cards, revealed that he too had flopped a flush, however his 6♣5♣ was no match.
One player at the table remarked that Black must have “sat up in his chair” when he saw the flop, and another said “and he almost fell out of it when he saw him shove!]
