Richards Wins With Flush Over Flush
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
PokerNews Podcast co-host Connor Richards faced an under-the-gun limp and an early position raise to 500, which he called in middle position. The under-the-gun player called as well and the trio went to the flop.
It came Q♦5♦7♦ and after a check and a bet of 1,200, Richards called, as did the under-the-gun player.
On the J♠ turn, following a pair of checks, Richards bet 3,000, which only the under-the-gun player called.
The river brought the Q♣ and Richards now faced a 3,000 bet from his remaining opponent. He raised to 12,000 and got a call.
Richards showed A♦10♦ for a flopped nut flush, while his opponent gave a courtesy showing of his 8♦6♦ for an inferior flush.
