Antonio Alba pushed his last 6 big blinds all-in and got a call from our chip leader, Charles Eichner, sitting on the button. They revealed their hands: A♦4♣ for Alba and J♦J♣ for Eichner. Alba was behind and needed some help on the flop — and got exactly that on K♦3♦4♦, giving him a pair and a flush draw.
The turn brought the 2♦, sealing Alba’s double-up with a flush. The 5♦ on the river even completed a spectacular straight flush! Alba takes a well-deserved pot and stays in the game.
