Royal Flush? Royal Flush!
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Justin Macella has been building one of the biggest stacks throughout the day, but Mark Goulding may have found the secret to beat him, or anyone for that matter.
After Macella opened in middle position and got called by Nick Raio in the hijack, Goulding moved all in for about 30,000 in the cutoff. Macella called and Raio folded.
What appeared to be a simple flip turned into anything but.
Mark Goulding: 
Justin Macella: 
The flop came 
giving Goulding the nut flush and a nearly insurmountable lead.
The turn 
clinched the hand for him, and then the 
on the river gave Goulding the royal flush for some extra fun!
