Strafford Taken Out

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Xiu Deng came in for a raise on the button, and Helene Strafford was the only caller in the small blind. The flop came out {3-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, and a short stack Strafford got the rest of her chips in against Deng. The cards were flipped, and it was virtually a coin flip.

Deng: {4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}
Strafford: {q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Strafford had mid pair while Deng had bottom pair and a flush draw. The turn provided no help, coming the {k-Diamonds}, but the {a-Clubs} spiked on the river, giving Deng a winning flush, and jumping her up to 104,000.
