Nashar Bombs the River, Shows the Goods
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
A player raised to 10,000 in early position and was called by Paul Runcan on the button and Hassan Nashar in the big blind.
The flop came A?5?6? and the early-position player bet 20,000. Both opponents called and the 3? fell on the turn.
The early-position player bet another 45,000 and only Nashar called this time. The K? fell on the river and Nashar led out for 100,000.
"The hand before I folded aces to a flush," Nashar's opponent said.
"Are you saying you have aces right now," Nashar replied.
"You seem like a good player," the early-position player added as he flashed A?Q? and mucked. Nashar showed the A?, followed by the 2? for the nut flush as he took the pot.
