Ievchenko and Spallone Make Flushes
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Nathan Forrest had open-raised preflop and Oleksii Ievchenko and Gabriella Spallone called in the blinds. The K?9?5? flop then checked through before Forrest bet 3,600 on the 5? turn after two more checks.
Ievchenko raised to 9,000 and Spallone called. Forrest had seen enough and laid his hand down as the A? river to complete the board.
Ievchenko slowed down and checked, prompting Spallone to bet 21,000 chips. Ievchenko quickly called and was shown J?7? by his opponent.
Ievchenko played the higher flush with his A?8?, however, and raked in the sizable pot.
