Santoli Turns the Nuts

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

The flop of Q?2?6? was already showing and the player in the hijack had bet out 600 into Ben Santoli in the cutoff and another player on the button. Santoli immediately raised to 1,200 and was only called by the hijack.

The turn 10? completed the flush and saw the hijack check-call a bet of 1,000 from Santoli.

When the river fell the 5?, the hijack checked for the final time over to Santoli, who quickly fired out a bet of 3,000. The hijack winced before putting in the call only to be shown A?8? for the nut flush by Santoli.
