: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
In a three-way pot with the flop reading K♦10♠5♦, Michael Cassiday-Maloney led out with a bet of 500 in the small blind. Jarrod Blackwell just called and the button raised to 1,500. Cassiday-Maloney folded but Blackwell stuck around for the 8♠ on the turn.
Blackwell check-called another bet of 2,000 from his opponent and the 7♦ completed the board. Blackwell led out with a bet of 6,500 this time and his opponent relinquished his cards. Blackwell did the table a favor and showed his Q♦J♦ for a rivered flush.
"How could I miss?" He rhetorically asked.
