Matta Gets Value on Wet Board

Level 4 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Boris Smuskevicius opened to 2,600 from under the gun and Nabil Matta three-bet to 6,000 from middle position. Smuskevicius made the call.

Both players checked the 10?9?8? flop leading to the K? on the turn. Smuskevicius bet 7,100 and Matta called.

Smuskevicius bet again for 5,000 on the K? river and Matta raised it to 15,000. Smuskevicius quickly called and tabled A?Q? for the second-highest possible flush. Matta showed down A?Q? for the nut-flush to take down a healthy pot.
