Flush Over Flush for Jackson
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a blind versus blind battle, two players saw the 9?7?9?2? turn and before checking, Boban Zhivkovikj said, "Just so you know nine-seven is my birthday."
Harvey Jackson stayed silent while firing out a bet of 30,000 into the pot of about 35,000.
"Oh, maybe it is your birthday," Zhivkovikj replied as he tossed in a call.
The 4? completed the board on the river and Zhivkovikj checked once again. Jackson flung 85,000 into the middle, which had Zhivkovikj talking aloud again. "I have the worst possible flush, but I don't think I can fold."
After a couple of seconds, Zhivkovikj tossed in a call and rolled his 4?3? face-up. Jackson tabled A?8? for the nut flush and the dealer pushed the pot his way.
