As level 14 winds down, Matt Ellis opens the pot for 10,500 from the cutoff and David Kimbuell calls from the big blind. The flop brings K♠9♠3♠ and Kimbuell checks it. Ellis quickly bets 12,000 and Kimbuell calls.
The turn is the 6♦ and Kimbuell checks again. Ellis goes into the tank, eyes darting from the pot to his opponent and back again the entire time. After half a minute, Ellis announces all in. Kimbuell sighs and mucks his hand. Ellis has Kimbuell covered in chips.
"This is my only bluff tonight," Ellis says, and turns over A♣3♦. "Or maybe I wasn't bluffing."
"I had the nut flush draw," Kimbuell replies.
Matt Ellis - 178,000
David Kimbuell - 59,000
