Beresford Bets His Flush
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Conor Beresford busted his first bullet on Day 1, but rejoined at the start of Day 2. He and Nikita Kuznetcov were battling over a 22,000 pot on a flop that read Q?7?8?. Beresford fired out a bet of 4,000 from the button after a check from Kuznetcov. Kutznetcov made the call and a fourth diamond hit the turn in the shape of the 4?.
Both players now checked and a 6? river was dealt. Kuznetcov checked once more, but Beresford fired in 22,500, leaving himself only 1,500 chips behind. Kutznetcov spent two time bank extensions before ultimately putting in the chips.
Beresford showed 10?10? for the fourth-best flush and it had beaten Kuznetcov's holding, as his cards quickly joined the muck.
