No Straight Flush to See
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Mark Jameson opened for 1,100 from hijack and got Ernest Bush in cutoff, and the blinds Gregory Wood in small and Chad Loube in big to call.
The flop came 4♥2♥9♠. With the players before him knuckling, Jameson continued with 2,100. Bush called, but Wood shoved all-in for 12,900, making Loube fold his hand. Jameson folded after but Bush made the call taking them to showdown.
Gregory Wood: 5♥3♥
Ernest Bush: K♦9♥
Wood had a flush draw and a straight draw while Bush made top pair. It really would have been nice to see a 6♥ or an A♥ to drop on the following streets but, alas, that didn't happen for those watching or for Wood.
Instead, the 2♠ turn and the 5♣ river fell, awarding the pot to Bush and busting Wood out of the tournament.
