Costello Pays off Amiri
Level 8
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Ehsan Amiri raised to 6,000 in the small blind and Sam Costello defended his big blind to the 10♠10♠Q♣ flop.
Amiri led out for 3,000, with Costello calling to see the 9♣ turn. Another lead from Amiri, this time for 10,000, was called by Costello.
The dealer then flipped over the 2♣ river and Amiri fired once more, sliding out 35,000 chips. Costello took a couple of minutes and decided to call.
Amiri turned over 8♣5♣ for a flush, and Costello could only smile as he mucked his hand.
