Billingsley Rivers Royal
Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action was picked up with a ruckus at the table, as Joshua Billingsley was shouting in a celebratory manner. The board read J♠5♦Q♠K♣10♠, and the commotion was justified. Billingsley, who had gotten it in preflop against Kenneth Kong, was holding A♦A♠K♠J♦ for a rivered Royal Flush.
Kong could only look on in disbelief as, despite holding two sets with Q♥Q♦10♦10♥, he said goodbye to half his stack, as well as the opportunity of a bounty.
