Nobles Nullified as Maloney Calls With Baloney
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
After Cliff Maloney had made it about 8,000 preflop in the cutoff, Robert Nobles slammed in his stack of 42,800 from the button. Maloney made a quick call, covering his opponent by 5,000 or so.
Robert Nobles: K♥K♦ 
Cliff Maloney: 9♣7♣
Nobles flopped top set on K♣4♣6♠, but the 2♣ turn made Maloney a flush for a big lead. The 8♦ river did not pair the board, setting Nobles' elimination in stone.
Maloney, meanwhile, slammed the table in celebration as the large pot elevated his stack to nearly six figures.
