Forsberg Very Short

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Tim Forsberg raised to 155,000 in the small blind, and Jeff Klein defended. Action went check-check on the {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop, and a {10-Hearts} turned. Forsberg bet 225,00, and Klein called. Forsberg checked as the {k-Diamonds} four-flushed the river, and Klein bet 350,000. Forsberg double-checked his cards, thought about a minute, and called.

Klein showed {q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} for a winning flush.
