Brian Breck opened to 6,000 in the hijack and Phil Hui called on the button as a short-stacked Nacho Barbero called in the big blind.
Barbero checked on the flop of K♦10♦6♥ and Breck continued for 10,000. Hui called and Barbero folded. Both players then checked on the Q♦ turn.
The 5♣ river completed the board and Breck bet 26,000. Hui called, only to muck as Breck showed A♦9♦ for the nut flush.
"Wow. I almost shoved into the nuts! Discipline!" cheered Barbero.
