A $938,000 Nightmare by Straight Flush on the River

 

Hole Cards:

  • Spindler: Jack♠, 7♠

  • Benes: Ten♥, Eight♥

Board (Community Cards):

  • Flop: 9♣, 9♥, Jack♥

  • Turn: Queen♦

  • River: 7♥


Hand Strength Breakdown:

Spindler (J♠ 7♠):

  • Made Hand: Two Pair – Jacks and Sevens

  • Board Interaction:

    • Flop: Top pair (Jack) and middle pair (9s)

    • Turn: Still two pair

    • River: Hits second pair (7), now has Jacks and Sevens with a Nine kicker

Benes (T♥ 8♥):

  • Made Hand: Straight Flush

  • Board Interaction:

    • Flop: Flush draw (two hearts on board, he has two hearts)

    • Turn: Open-ended straight draw

    • River: Hits the 7♥ to complete a Straight Flush: 7♥-8♥-9♥-10♥-J♥


Winning Hand:

  • Benes wins with a Straight Flush, which is the second strongest possible hand in Texas Hold'em, just under a Royal Flush.

  • Spindler loses with two pair, which under normal conditions might be a strong hand, but here it's crushed.


Emotionally Charged Moment:

The reaction from Spindler in the image makes perfect sense:

  • He improved to two pair on the river, a hand that would beat many others.

  • Unfortunately, the river also completed an extremely rare and unbeatable Straight Flush for Benes.

  • This is a brutal cooler — not a bad play by Spindler, just bad luck.


Final Verdict:

  • Benes: 100% (Straight Flush – T♥ 8♥ with board: 9♥ J♥ 7♥)

  • Spindler: 0% (Two Pair – J♠ 7♠)

A classic painful poker hand where everything goes wrong on the river.
