button in SafariSpanne Flushes Ju Out
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
After action passed to him, Joseph Spanne in middle position bet 20,000 into a pot of 28,000 and a 8♠9♥4♥ flop. Wanting to see another card, Samuel Ju, in the big blind, called.
The 10♥ turn fell and Ju check-called Spanne's 32,000 bet. After another check from Ju on the river A♥, Spanne put maximum pressure with a 215,000 all-in shove.
Ju went into the tank, frequently looking at his hand. So near the money, Ju seemed uncertain but jammed his chips in the middle, putting his tournament life on the line.
Spanne showed K♠Q♥ for a queen-high flush. Looking frustrated, Ju stood up and turned over J♥10♠ for a lower flush.
