Vakili Hanging On After Doubling Opponent

Level 7 : 300/600, 50 ante

The player under the gun called before Reza Vakili raised to 1,500 from the hijack. The player on the button called as did the original limper.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{k-Spades}{10-Spades} and the action checked to Vakili who bet 2,300. The big blind called before the player under the gun raised to 9,000. Vakili called. The big blind went into the tank for several minutes before finally opting to fold.

The under the gun player then moved all in for 10,400 as the {9-Diamonds} dropped on the turn and was called by Vakili shortly after.

Vakili: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Vakili found himself behind with his flush draw against his opponents two pair. The {5-Clubs} didn't help Vakili as he dropped to only a handful of big blinds.
