Garbi Backdoors a Flush to Stack Lin

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ravid Garbi
Ravid Garbi

Ren Lin opened from the hijack and picked up two callers in Ravid Garbi from the small blind & the big blind.

The flop came 635, and when the action got to Lin, he fired out a continuation-bet of 20,000. Garbi called and the big blind folded.

A 4 landed on the turn and again Garbi decided to switch up his strategy by leading for 16,000. Lin stuck around to see the 2 put a straight on board, then Garbi shoved. Lin had around 40,000 behind and didn't like the spot he was in.

"Ay ay ay, pocket sevens my friend?" Lin said to Garbi.

Eventually, Lin did stick his chips in and Garbi showed that he backdoored a flush with 98. Lin initially mucked, but was forced to show his hand and the dealer revealed 84.

It's not all doom and gloom for Lin, though, as he bought right back in and has a fresh stack of 100,000 to play with.
