Sethi Hits That Other Draw
Level 16
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Action folded to Chance Kornuth on the button who opened the action to 30,000. Vidur Sethi called out of the small blind and Eelis Parssinen called out of the big blind.
The 9♦7♥2♥ flop landed and Sethi checked. Parssinen bet pot for 102,000. Chance got out of the way and Sethi hit the pot button again to put Parssinen all-in. He called and they were off to a turn and river heads-up.
Eelis Parssinen: K♦4♦7♣7♠
Vidur Sethi: A♥Q♣J♠J♥
Sethi was on the nut flush draw and Parssinen was hoping for a board pair with his set of sevens.
The K♠ turn was a relative blank but gave Sethi a gutter to the nut straight. That straight would come in on the 10♠ river. Sethi hit the backdoor draw he needed and Parssinen hit the rail before the money.
