Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Youness Barakat raised to 75,000 out of the hijack and Espen Myrmo called from the cutoff.
Check, check, followed the 4♥Q♦2♦ flop, with the 9♥ arriving on the turn. Barakat bet 150,000, which Myrmo called.
A 10♣ rolled off on the river, causing Barakat to check. Myrmo bet 315,000 and Barakat quickly called.
Myrmo showed a busted flush draw with A♥9♠8♥8♣, and lost the pot to Barakat's Q♥10♥7♣2♣ for two pair.
