Sherif in Strife

[user135779]

Sherif Derias limped in from early position before the action folded around to Lisa Walsh who raised to 800 from the lowjack position. The player in the cutoff called, only to see the button reraise all in for 1,550.

Peter Aristidou folded from the small blind, Clonie Gowen folded from the big blind and Derias shoved over the top to get the others out of the way.

Button: {a-Spades}

{a-Spades}

{a-Hearts}

Derias:

{k-Diamonds}

{j-Diamonds}

The board was spread {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{j-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{8-Diamonds}

; the opponent's overpair improved to the nut flush and good enough to double up. However Derias is in trouble, now on just 2,700 in chips.
