Flush for Leach
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
There was approximately 14,000 in the pot on the flop of 4♣K♦A♦ before a check from the small and big blind led to a bet of 7,700 from the hijack. David Leach responded with a jam for 39,500, which led to folds from both blinds before the hijack went into the tank.
The hijack called after considerable thought to put Leach at risk.
David Leach: 7♦4♦
Hijack: A♠9♠
The hijack opponent made the correct call as he held the lead, but Leach was live with a flush and two pair outs to stay in contention.
The 10♥ turn was the right color, but the wrong suit. Leach was given a welcome sight as the 2♦ peeled on the river to improve Leach to a flush and sink his opponent, who was left with a paltry 1,200 in chips following the loss.
