Farkas Binks the River to Beat Peren
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Zita Farkas shoved her last 16,000 into the middle from the cutoff and was instantly called by Louis Peren on her direct left.
Zita Farkas: K♣Q♣
Louis Peren: Q♦Q♠
Peren's ladies were ahead, but anything could happen with five cards to come.
Farkas picked up a flush draw on the 3♣3♥4♣ flop, although the 10♥ turn was no help to her.
The A♣ rolled off on the river to give Farkas her much-needed flush, and she stayed alive in the Main Event.
