Paul Phua Flops Nut-Flush Draw But Only Has One Out
The flop read [9s8s7c] when Paul Phua put the rest of his chips into the middle and Dmitriy Kuzmin called, having just slightly more chips than the Malaysian.
Paul Phua: [asks]
Dmitriy Kuzmin: [jsts]
Kuzmin had flopped the nut-straight with an open-ended straight flush draw and Phua then had fewer outs than initially thought, leaving him with just a [6s] left that could take down the pot.
The [9d] turn and [6h] cemented the pot for Kuzmin who sent Phua to the sidelines.
