Farah Backdoors Zabiyakin

Tim Baker

Level 4 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ivan Zabiyakin raised from early position, with Elie Farah and Nejat Erman coming along from the blinds.

When the action got to Zabiyakin on the 10♠Q♣4♦ flop, he fired a continuation-bet of 4,200, which both Farah and Erman called.

Three checks followed the 2♣ turn before the 9♣ rolled off on the river. Farah bet 27,500, and only Zabiyakin called.

Farah showed a backdoor flush with K♣10♣, leaving Zabiyakin with just 15,000 chips.
