Eljach Triumphs in Multiway Clash

Level 2
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Omar Eljach had raised a previous open to 6,000 from middle position, only for Grzegorz Derkowski to four-bet it to 25,300 from the hijack. Arturo Paduano then five-bet to 83,000 from the button and received calls from both Eljach and Derkowski.
The flop came 8?7?3?. Eljach moved all in for 19,400 and Derkowski reshoved for 25,900. Paduano called with a covering stack to put both players at risk.
Omar Eljach: K?8?6?4?
Grzegorz Derkowski: Q?Q?J?9?
Arturo Paduano: A?A?K?9?
The rest of the board ran out 5?A?. Eljach's nut-flush was best and he scooped a titanic pot worth nearly 800 big blinds while Derkowski took the side pot with a smaller flush.
