Calm and Cool

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Daniel Weaver open-shoved all-in for 16,000 in hijack and got a call from John Kniska on the button. Chung Ho in the big blind really wanted to call but ultimately just folded his hand.

Daniel Weaver: A8 All in
John Kniska: AJ

Like most seniors that had seen it all, both players kept it cool and calm when the flop dropped 36J giving Weaver a flush draw.

The 5 turn fell completing Weavers flush with no fuss. The 7 river was dealt without consequence. The dealer after the hand was looking intently at the cards making sure she pushed the chips towards the right direction.

As cool as the AC, Kniska pointed at Weaver telling the dealer his flush had won the hand.
