Brewer Misses His Flush in a Massive Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
From the small blind Chris Brewer had a raise of 555,000 out in front of him, and Tomas Ribeiro called from the cutoff.
Heads-up to the flop of 6♣5♦4♦, where Brewer bet the pot. Ribeiro called for his last 1,015,000 and the cards were flipped over.
Tomas Ribeiro: 10♦9♠8♦7♠ 
Chris Brewer: A♦Q♠J♦8♠
Ribeiro flopped the nut straight, and needed to fade a diamond on the turn or river to earn the huge double-up. The 8♥ turn and 9♥ river were no help to Brewer, and Ribeiro moved up to over three million. Brewer let out a long sigh as he was left with just 105,000.
