Taherpour Gets a Fresh Infusion of Oxygen on Seventh

Level 17
Dara Taherpour
Dara Taherpour

Seven Card Stud

Dara Taherpour: XxXx/A♠K♠8♠7♣ All in
Alex Livingston: 4♠8♥7♥10♣/Xx

Dara Taherpour bet on fourth and fifth streets, and Alex Livingston called. Taherpour bet again on sixth, Livingston raised, and Taherpour called all in.

Taherpour showed J♠J♦, while Livingston had K♣K♦. Livingston caught the 5♦ on his last card, and Taherpour needed to improve to stay alive. He peeled the 7♠ to make a flush, and he earned the double up.

"That fresh oxygen in your body, how does it feel?" tablemate Kristopher Tong asked him.

"It feels amazing," Taherpour replied.
