Made to Sweat

[user4144]

Stud:

A big hand developed between Sherkhan Farnood and Jeff Duvall, the latter calling down bets on every street except the final one, where he led out for 16,000. Farnood called.

Farnood = {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{3-Diamonds}

{10-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

Duvall =

{3-Clubs}

{10-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

{J-Hearts}

Although Duvall's {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{K-Diamonds}

{K-Hearts}

looked good, Farnood made his man sweat as he stared at his cards for what seemed like an age. After he'd confirmed he was indeed beaten, Farnood tapped the table in appreciation and threw his cards into the muck.

Crucial pot for Duvall, who jumps up to 230,000.
