Jul 14, 2022

After a flop of Heart 10Spade 6Heart 4 with about 33K already in the pot, Anees Puri checks from UTG+1, Emmett Rutkowski checks from middle position, and WPT champion Tony Dunst bets 10,000 from the cutoff.

Puri check-raises to 22,500, and Rutkowski check-reraises all in for 42,800. Dunst tanks for a fairly long time before he folds.

Puri says, “Where did you come from? You took my move.”

Puri calls the all in and says, “I need a lot of help” as he shows Spade 5Spade 4 for a pair of fours.

“Me too,” says Rutkowski, who turns over Heart 7Heart 2 for a flush draw.

The turn card is the Heart J, the river card is the Club 2, and Rutkowski turns a heart flush to win the pot and more than double up in chips.

Emmett Rutkowski  –  129,000  (108 bb)

Anees Puri  –  102,000  (85 bb)

Looking at the results of the hand, with Rutkowski completing his flush draw, Dunst says, “I guess I’m happy I folded?”
