Adeniya Backdoors Okolovich
Level 21
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Iurii Okolovich raised to 100,000 from early position before Martins Adeniya jammed for 380,000 from the cutoff. Okolovich called when the action got back to him.
Martins Adeniya: A♣J♣
Iurii Okolovich: A♦A♠
Adeniya had run straight into the aces of Okolovich and was in need of some help from the board. He found a glimmer of hope on the J♠5♣9♦ flop by pairing his jack.
That glimmer turned into something more substantial when the 6♣ turn gave him a backdoor flush draw.
The dealer burned a card and placed the K♣ on the river, completing Adeniya's flush and cracking Okolovich's aces.
