2773 Straight Flush for Kyle Julius 2
Photo: Kyle Julius flopped a six-high straight flush to eliminate Nicolas Fraioli.

Kyle Julius raises to 25,000 from the cutoff and Nicolas Fraioli calls from the small blind. The flop comes [5c3c2c] and both players check.

The turn brings the [5s] and Fraioli bets 37,000, leaving around 100,000 behind.  Julius thinks for less than a minute, then calls.  Before the dealer can pull in chips and deal the river, Fraioli tells Julius, "I am all-in in the dark."

"I call in the dark," Julius says. He then turns over [4c6c] for a flopped straight flush.  

"Oh my God," Fraoli bemoans.  He then shows his hand–[KcJc] for a flopped king-high flush.  The river is an inconsequential [As] and Fraioli is eliminated.

Kyle Julius  –  1,775,000  (148 BBs)
Nicolas Fraioli  –  eliminated in 22nd place  ($23,884)
