Meragal Gets Paid With Nut Flush
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Maduka Meragal opened to 65,000 in the cutoff and Arunas Sapitavicius defended out of the big blind.
Sapitavicius checked on the flop of 3?K?6? and Meragal continued for 85,000. Sapitavicius called. Sapitavicius then led out for 40,000 on the 4? turn and Meragal called.
The Q? river completed the board and Sapitavicius checked. Meragal used a time bank and bet 430,000. Sapitavicius called, only to muck when his opponent showed the stone nuts with A?9? for an ace-high flush.
"Is that the first time you've used a time bank?" asked Mike Watson.
"Yep!" replied Meragal.
