John Dapkus opened to 1,000 in the hijack and Dylan Weisman made the call in the cutoff. Abteen Vaziri came along in the small blind, while Robert Tanita defended his big blind.
The 6♥7♥9♥ flop saw all four players check, with action repeating on the 10♠ turn.
Vaziri checked again after seeing the J♥ river, with Tanita firing 2,500 into the middle. Dapkus and Weisman got out of the way before Vaziri called.
Tanita showed A♥8♥5♣3♠ for a flush, taking down an early pot as Vaziri mucked.
