Pablo Joaquin Melogno opened from early position to 6,500. William Kassouf, in middle position, reraised to 18,500. Action folded back around to Melogno, who put in a four-bet to 39,500, which sent Kassouf into the tank.
"I can't fold this. I've got a very big hand, I can't fold," Kassouf shared, saying that he'd either be calling or raising.
Eventually, Kassouf stacked his chips into a single tower and placed them in the middle, telling Melogno, "If you've got it you got it," suspecting he might be up against aces.
When Melogno didn't make the snap call, Kassouf realized he wasn't against aces. After a count from the dealer, it became known the shove was an additional 74,000. Melogno made the call, putting Kassouf at risk.
Pablo Joaquin Melogno: 
William Kassouf: 
"Ace or king on the flop. Or 2 diamonds, make him sweat," Kassouf pleaded.
His request was answered as the flop hit the table, giving him top pair and the nut flush draw. All that hope vanished quickly Melogno hit his one out as the hit the table on the turn, improving him to a set. Kassouf then moved back in front just as quickly as he had fallen behind, as the on the river completed his flush.
"That'd have been the sickest one outer," Kassouf remarked as he stacked his chips. "One flip that's all I need."
