El-Wely Backs into a Flush
Level 2
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Three players saw the flop come down 10♣6♦2♠. An early position player bet 2,500, which Michael Iakovlev called in the cutoff and Mohamed El-Wely on the button.
The A♠ turn checked through for the 6♠ to hit the river. The early position player bet 2,500 again, and Iakovlev called again. El-Wely, however, bumped it up to 16,000, which only Iakovlev called.
El-Wely turned over a backdoor flush with J♠9♠ and took down the pot.
