Sarnoff Makes a Straight Flush
Level 37
: 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Biagio Morciano raised to 1,600,000 in the cutoff and was called by Eric Smidinger on the button and Ben Sarnoff in the big blind. The flop came 
and the action checked to Smidinger who bet 1,600,000. Sarnoff called and Morciano got out of the way.
The 
landed on the turn and both players checked to the 
on the river. Sarnoff checked again and Smidinger quickly checked back. Sarnoff showed 
for a straight flush and Smidinger was forced to concede.
"I was hoping you had the ace," Sarnoff said to Smidinger.
