Wade Flops A Flush

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

A player in middle position opened to 1,200 and it folded to Tristan Wade in the small blind who made the call. The player in the big blind completed the action with a call.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and the action checked through to the turn which brought the {10-Spades}.

Wade checked and the player in the big blind bet 1,500. The original raiser called the 1,500 but when the action got back to Wade in the small blind he raised to 8,000. The player in the big blind thought for a second and then released his hand. The original raiser made the call.

The river card was the {8-Clubs}. Wade thought for a minute before checking. His opponent checked back and Wade tabled {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for the flopped flush with a redraw to a straight flush. He couldn't get any value on the river.

The {j-Clubs} fell on the river and Darie checked once again, and Lam snap-checked back. Darie tabled {4-Clubs}{4-Spades} for a set of fours on the flop and Lam mucked his hand.
