button in SafariBinder Runs Into Straver's Flush
Level 5
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Emilien Pitavy on the button opened to 25,000. Bernhard Binder in the small blind three-bet to 120,000, Johannes Straver in the big blind called while Pitavy folded.
Both Binder and Straver checked the 3♠Q♣J♣ flop leading to the 9♠ turn where Binder bet 225,000. Straver made the call.
Binder bet 115,000 on the 10♠ river but Straver raised to 1,050,000. With a little bit less than 700,000 behind, Binder went deep into the tank and eventually called with Q♠J♥ for two pair. Unfortunately for him, Straver had a flush with K♠J♠ so Binder was eliminated.
