STRAIGHT FLUSH In A $300,000 Poker Tournament!
How many times have you hit a straight flush? Not many I’m sure! Bill Klein does exactly that in this poker hand from the Super High Roller Bowl in the PokerGO studio, Las Vegas. What’s even more impressive is that two of his opponents - Alex Foxen and Justin Bonomo have also hit a straight!
Jonathan talks about hands that like to bet in multiway pots. Draws that can comfortably bet and call a raise are generally the ones you want to use. You often want to check your draws that cannot continue against a raise as you will be folding out a decent amount of equity in the pot.

The Super High Roller Bowl VI was held in September 2021 from inside the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The $300,000 buy-in attracted a field of 21 players and created a prize pool of $6.3 million. Michael Addamo went on to win the event for $3,400,000 with Justin Bonomo coming in 2nd.
In this poker hand, Bill Klein in the cutoff has T9ss, Michael Addamo on the button has AcQd, Alex Foxen in the small blind has JhTd and Bonomo has T6cc in the big blind. The action begins with Klein raising to 35,000 and all 3 players decide to call. The flop comes a very spicy Js 9h 8s which gives everyone something to be interested in. Klein continues to tell his story with his open ended straight flush draw and opts to use a small bet size of 60,000, which is called by Foxen and Bonomo. The miracle 7s appears which now gives Klein a straight flush but also gives Foxen and Bonomo a straight. After the action has checked to Klein he decides to bet 140,000 which is again called by both Foxen and Bonomo. After the 9d falls on the river Klein decides to shove all-in for 465,000. Foxen folds, but Bonomo eventually makes the call, only to be delivered the bad news!
