Korman Flushing

Sam Korman
Sam Korman
Sometimes you hit your draw, sometimes you don't. Sam Korman hit two draws with the same card. He limped into a six-way pot from late position and saw a flop of {K-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs}. When everyone checked to Korman, he bet 600. That bet was min-raised by the small blind to 1,200, clearing all of the other players out of the hand. Korman called.

The turn came {Q-Diamonds} and brought a bet of 1,500 from the small blind. Again Korman called. On the river {9-Hearts}, the small blind checked it over to Korman. He settled on a bet of 3,000 that the small blind agonizingly called. Korman showed {J-Hearts} {10-Hearts}, having hit both a straight and a flush on the river. (He played the flush.)

Korman's stack is up to 37,000 as a result of this hand.
