Perlman Gets Lucky To Miss His Flush Draw

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Aaron Frei opened the action to 300 and received calls from David Perlman on the button as well as both players in the blinds. The flop came {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} and action checked to Frei. He made a continuation-bet for 800 and Perlman called. The two blinds folded and action proceeded heads up.

The turn came {9-Diamonds} and Frei fired another barrel for 2,300. Perlman stuck around, bringing the river {j-Clubs}. Both players quickly checked.

Frei tabled {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} for ace-king high and a missed nut-flush draw. Perlman showed {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a missed queen-high flush draw that had flopped top pair. His pair of queens proved to be good and he took down the pot as the two talked about how lucky he was that a third diamond did not hit on the river.
