Straight Flush Over Quads
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Edward Ellson raised to 1,800 before the flop. Brian Alioa, Eduardo Flores, and John Leeper all called.
The flop came 8♠7♠J♥. Ellson bet 3,000, Alioa folded, Flores called, and Leeper folded.
The turn brought action with the 8♣. Ellson went all in for 15,000 and Flores snap-called.
"I got quads," said Flores.
Edward Ellson: 9♠10♠3♣4♥
Eduardo Flores: K♥Q♠8♦8♥
Flores' four-of-a-kind was short-lived as the J♠ hit the felt on the river, giving Ellson the straight flush for a brutal cooler.
