Sturm Backs Into a Flush
Level 10
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Jamil Wakil made it 8,000 under the gun and only Leon Sturm called from the cutoff.
Wakil tossed out a bet of 6,500 on the 10♦K♣Q♥ flop, and Sturm put in the call.
Wakil bet again when he saw the 3♣ fall on the turn, this time for 18,000. Once again, Sturm called.
The 2♣ rolled off on the river and Wakil put Sturm all in for his last 25,000. Sturm instantly called, and Wakil turned over Kx10x for two pair. Sturm had that beat with Q♣9♣ for a backdoor flush.
