Farha Thriving

Action folded to Sam Farha who limped from the cutoff. Ryan Lenaghan followed suit on the button. The small blind completed and Vanessa Selbst checked her option out of the big.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} and the small blind checked. Selbst took the first stab at the pot with a bet of 800. Farha and Lenaghan both called and the small blind folded.

The {3-Hearts} turned and Selbst slowed down, checking her option to Farha. Farha bet 4,500 and Lenaghan called. This time Selbst opted to muck her cards and we were heads up to fifth street.

The board completed by pairing the board with the {3-Hearts}. Farha bet 7,000 and Lenaghan called. Farha showed the {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} for a turned straight and Lenaghan mucked his hand.

Farha is now sitting pretty with over 100,000 in chips.
