Amsellem’s Flushed to Double-Up
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Ehsan Amiri opened from under the gun with a raise to 1,200, and Jacob Amsellem in the cutoff made the call. Leonard Herrmann, sitting in the big blind, three-bet to 5,400, and both players called.
The K♥2♥A♥ flop saw Herrmann lead out for 3,000. Amiri called, but Amsellem had other ideas and raised to 16,000. Herrmann checked Amsellem’s remaining stack before calling, while Amiri folded.
The 8♠ turn brought more action as Amsellem shoved all in after Herrmann checked. Herrmann quickly called, showing A♠A♦ for a set, while Amsellem revealed J♥8♥ for a flopped flush.
Herrmann needed another ace or an eight on the river to scoop the pot, but the 6♥ river sealed it giving Amsellem a big double-up.
