Nezer Almost Hits a Royal Flush
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Or Nezer jammed the button for 2,465,000 and Algirdas Saveikis called from the small blind for about half of his stack.
Or Nezer: J♣J♥
Algirdas Saveikis: A♠8♦
Nezer was in good shape with his pocket jacks and just needed to fade an ace to double up to over five million.
A flop of K♥Q♥4♣ kept Nezer's pair in the lead. A 10♥ hit the turn to give Nezer a royal flush draw and meant he didn't want to see another jack. The 2♠ completed the board, and Nezer doubled up through Saveikis.
