Mao Cracks Kings
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Aram Oganyan opened to 12,000 from early position before Renji Mao shoved from the cutoff for 80,000. Oganyan snap called to put Mao at risk.
Renji Mao: A♣J♣
Aram Oganyan: K♣K♦
Mao was in bad shape, but the flop gave him plenty to work with when it came 4♥2♣Q♣ to give him the nut flush draw.
He did not have to wait in suspense for too long as the 5♣ peeled on the turn to upgrade him to a flush and secure the pot.
The meaningless 10♦ river peeled to complete the board as Mao doubled through Oganyan.
