Double Nuts for Tran
Level 16
: Blinds 0/0, 6,000 ante
9♥K♠10♠2♣Q♣
7♦4♣10♣6♠8♠
Panagiotis Vafakis had got it all in and was at risk with A♠K♦Q♠9♦. Quan Tran had made the call on the flop with Q♥J♦8♣9♣ having flopped the nut straight on the top board, and a nine-high flush draw on the bottom, as well as an open-ender.
Vafakis was looking for a spade or a jack on the top board, and had to dodge a large amount of outs on the bottom. Unfortunately for him, Tran instantly turned the nuts on the bottom board, and held on the top, sending Vafakis packing.
