Chang Backdoors His Way to a Double
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Amanda Wiswell raised to 2,500 in the cutoff, the player in the small blind called, and Andrew Chang defended in the big blind.
The flop came 8♥2♠3♦ and it checked to Wiswell who bet 3,000. Only Chang continued to the A♥ turn.
Chang check-called a bet of 5,000 from Wiswell and the K♥ landed on the river, completing the backdoor flush draw.
Chang moved all in for 18,500 to put himself at risk and Wiswell thought for a moment before reluctantly making the call.
Chang turned over 7♥3♥ for a flush, besting the A♠7♠ of Wiswell who had a pair of aces.
