Koller Wins Battle of Flushes
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
WSOP bracelet winner Ran Koller was in early position when a player under the gun raised 9,000.
Koller, one of the shortest stacks at his table, moved all in for his remaining 46,000. Action quickly folded to the original raiser, who counted out chips and made the call.
Koller: K?Q?
Opponent: 9?8?
The dealer placed 7?5?A? on the flop, giving both players a flush draw. Koller’s opponent was drawing to an inferior flush, but he picked up a gut-shot straight draw, including a straight flush draw.
The 2? on the turn didn’t alter the hand trajectory. While the J? on the river gave both players a flush, Koller’s hand dominated his opponent.
