Hughes Finds The Right Color
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
On a board reading A♦Q♥3♦, Eli Elezra checked, James Hughes checked, and the player in late position bet 16,000. Elezra folded, and Hughes called.
The turn brought the 2♦, and both players checked. The river peeled the 7♣, and now Hughes took the betting lead, wagering 28,000. His opponent went into the tank for quite some time before throwing out a call.
Hughes tabled J♦5♦Q♠K♣ for a turned flush, and his opponent threw his hand into the muck.
