Becker Flops The Nuts; Carroll Rivers the Nuts
Level 18
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
James Carroll raised from early position to 25,000, and when action folded to the big blind Jeremy Becker, he elected to make the call.
The flop came 5?4?3? and Becker led out for a bet of 25,000. Carroll made the call to see a turn.
The turn was the 6? and Becker once again bet out, this time 55,000, which Carroll called to see a river.
On the river was the J? and after giving it some thought, Becker went all in for 210,000. Carrol snap called and tabled A?8? for the nut flush. Becker showed down 7x6x for a flopped straight, but the rivered flush for Carroll sent Becker to the rail.
