Kim Schinco Flushes Competition
Feb 15, '14
The big blind raised to 1,200 and Spyros Malkotsis called from middle position. Kim Schinco called from the cutoff and the three saw a flop of 943. The big blind bet 2,800, Malktosis got out of the way and Schinco called. The turn was the K and the big blind bet 4,800 and Schinco called again. The river was the 8 and the big blind checked. Schinco took charge and fired out a bet of 10,000 and the big blind thought for a bit.
“I don’t want to pay you off with a flush. It’s either a flush or a set or I win,” the big blind said. “You are such a nice lady, you deserve it.”
The big blind called and Schinco showed Jack-Ten of diamonds for the rivered flush.

Schinco Runs Into Quads
Feb 16, '14
The board read KJKK when we noticed that Kim Schinco was all in for her tournament life. Schinco had about 25,000 chips left and the showdown we witnessed was a great one.
Bob Gilbert showed KQ for quads but Schinco was not drawing dead holding 109 for a inside straight flush draw.
The river brought the 9 and Schinco did not hit her miracle hand and she was knocked out.
