Skosples Runs Into the Nuts
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Bruno Skosples defended his big blind against an under-the-gun raise by Sefora Pop and check-called the 6♣5♦4♦ flop for 25,000. He then check-called the A♠ turn for 60,000 and jammed the 9♦ river for around 130,000, Pop snap-called.
"Nothing," Skosples declared and flung his Q♠7♥ for a busted straight draw towards the dealer. Pop showed her A♦2♦ for the nut flush and scored the knockout.
"I almost called preflop, I had ten eight of diamonds," Yuzhou Yin in the eight seat mentioned.
