"My Gosh!" Brenes Has His Legs Taken Out By Paluszek's Better Flush
Level 8
Humberto Brenes:A?J?10?/3?9?4?4?
James Paluszek: K?5?K?/A?8?6?Q?
James Paluszek raised Humberto Brenes' bring in and Brenes called. Paluszek led out again on fourth and fifth. When Brenes made an open pair of fours, he bet and Paluszek called. "Last card!" Brenes requested of the dealer.
Having seemingly had his wish answered, Brenes bet again on the river. "I told you, last card!"
After their cards were spread out, Paluszek looked at them in disbelief, discovering that Brenes also had a flush, and Paluszek's was better. "When you said, 'Last card' I thought you had a full house," he exclaimed.
"My gosh!" Brenes repeated several times, also in disbelief.
