Alikhani Can't Fold Flush
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action was picked up on the river with a board reading 9♥K♥3♣3♦10♥ and the pot standing 27,000 strong.
Middle position player Shrinag Gaddipati had placed 82,000 in front of him as an overbet, more than covering Abbas Alikhani in the cutoff.
Whilst Alikhani was in the tank, tablemate Amir Kaikhah let PokerNews know that the two had history: Earlier on in the day, Gaddipati had bluff-shoved into Alikhani, and tabled queen-high as Alikhani folded top pair.
After taking inventory, Alikhani noted that his stack amounted to 41,600. "If you got it you got it," he finally announced, and stuck in the call.
He had rivered a flush with A♥7♥ but it was awful news for him, as he was turned dead by his opponent's K♦K♠ for kings full.
