Mehmood Doubles Through Varnell

Level 31 : 50,000/100,000, 0 ante

Action folded around to the blinds and Craig Varnell raised to 300,000 from the small. Omar Mehmood called from the big and the two players saw a flop of {Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Varnell bet the pot for 600,000, Mehmood jammed for 865,000, and Varnell called with a covering stack.

Craig Varnell: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}
Omar Mehmood: {J-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Varnell had the lead with kings up but Mehmood had plenty of outs with straight and flush draws. The {7-Hearts} on the turn gave Mehmood his flush and left Varnell drawing thin. The {5-Spades} river changed nothing and Mehmood took the pot to double up.
