Eyster Scores Runner Runner Flush Versus Tahar
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Tony Miles raised from early position to 300,000, Kevin Eyster three-bet to 735,000 from late position, and Said Tahar four-bet all in for 5,550,000 effective from the small blind. Miles moved out of the way, and Eyster called and saw the bad news. It was aces versus kings to the flop, and Eyster stood up as soon as the cards started falling.
Kevin Eyster: K♠K♦
Said Tahar: A♥A♦
The board started off heartbreaking for Eystern with A♣2♠3♠. Tahar's set of aces was looking good, but then the6♠ turn, and the 5♠ river brought him the flush that saved his tournament life.
