Hak Dodges the Flush Draw
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
A player opened in early position and Chris Hak called next to act before the small blind did the same.
When the K♦5♦3♣ flop hit the felt, the action checked to Hak, and he dropped a bet of 30,000 across the line. Both the small blind and the early position player made the call.
The 6♣ fell on the turn and once checked to, Hak continued for 100,000. This time only the small blind made the call.
The Q♥ completed the board on the river, and the small blind checked for a final time before Hak splashed a bet of 181,000 into the middle. His opponent only took a couple of seconds before folding and flashing his A♣9♣, missing his flush draw.
