Fortunate Double for Irani

Zal Irani doubles
Zal Irani doubles

John Bitakis opened in middle position, and the action folded to Zal Irani, who three-bet jammed for 720,000 from the blinds. Bitakis made the call, and had Irani dominated.

Bitakis: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Irani: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The {j-Hearts} was in the window of the flop, prompting Irani to clap his hands loudly. and it was followed by the {10-Hearts} and the {2-Diamonds}, giving Bitakis a flush draw. Niether the {7-Clubs} nor the {4-Diamonds} completed said flush however, and Irani doubled through.

"How does he fade that?" Claudia Crawford asked after the hand.

"I wouldn't have fist-pumped after that flop," Tripp Kirk added.
