Dan O'Hair

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Three ways on a flop of 7♣2♣5♣, Leland Postil checked from under the gun to Benjamin Gold, who bet 3,500 from middle position. Faraz Jaka called from the hijack and Postil then check-raised to 8,000, which got a fold from Gold and a call from Jaka.

The Q♠ fell on the turn and Postil continued for 15,000, sending Jaka into the tank.

Jaka weighed his decision and then folded K♣10♣ face up for the second nut flush. Postil revealed 7♦7♠ for a set, which got a "Nice hand," from Jaka as Postil collected the pot.
