His opponent called and Patterson showed K♥8♥ for the king-high flush. The big blind flipped over 9♥6♥ for a lesser flush and Patterson pulled the pot.

Nature called for one poker player on Opening Day at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) at the most inopportune time.
PokerNews Editor Connor Richards shared an interesting hand on X that occurred at his table during Event #2: $500 Casino Employees No-Limit Hold'em on Tuesday.
The players are now on a 20-minute break.
Jonathon Kotula wagered his remaining 11,100 chips on the turn, on a board of 2♦7♠Q♠5♦.
With a pot of around 22,000, his opponent counted out calling chips and took a moment before dropping them over the line making the call, putting Kotula at risk.
Jonathon Kotula: K♣Q♣
Opponent: 6♦7♦
Kotula was ahead with his pair of queens but needed to fade a large proportion of the deck to survive.
The A♥ river was a safe card for Kotula and he smiled as he stacked his newfound wealth.
