Hong Looking Flushed

Catherine Hong, girlfriend of Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier has just taken a big hit to her stack after she made a great on the flop.

She opened from early position with a raise to 2,700 and only the big blind called.

Flop: {3-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} The big blind instantly moves all-in, for a total of 17,800 chips, a huge overbet. From the look on Hong's face she was frantically trying to put him on a hand and after about a minute she decided she had the best hand and made the call.

Mr Overbet: {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Hong: {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Hong was in front with top pair but had to avoid a seven, nine or queen

Turn: {K-Diamonds} A bad card for Hong as it gave her opponent more outs to a flush draw.

River: {Q-Diamonds} Wow! Not only did Mrs Elky's hand lose to a flush, it lost to a runner-runner straight flush!

Hong is now down to around 18,000
