Flush on the River Saves Arduini
Nivel 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
With 8,500 already in the pot, the flop read Q♠9♠K♣ when Lorenzo Arduini, sitting in the big blind, checked to Martin Nielsen. Nielsen placed a bet, only to face a shove from Arduini for 21,500. Nielsen snap-called, and the cards were turned over.
Lorenzo Arduini: 8♠6♠
Martin Nielsen: Q♦9♦
Nielsen's two pair had the lead, leaving Arduini in desperate need of a spade to complete his flush. The 7♦ on the turn didn’t help, but the river delivered the 7♠, securing Arduini the flush and a crucial double-up.
