James Flushes Away Tompros' Set of Kings
Demetrios Tompros opened under the gun to 3,500. Hassam Sleiman called from the small blind and Bobby James defended his big blind.
After the action check to Tompros on the 7♣4♥K♣ flop he put out a continuation-bet of 3,500 which only James called.
The turn came a flush completing 5♣. James led out 5,500 and was met with a raise to 18,000 by Tompros. James thought it over before he raised enough to put Tompros all in. Tompros snap-called for the rest of his 25,000 and the cards were revealed.
Demetrios Tompros: K♠K♥
Robert James: 8♣4♣
James was ahead with his turned flush but had to fade the board pairing on the river if he was to eliminate Tompros. The 9♠ river wasn't what Tompros was looking for as his set of kings ended up second best to the flush of James.
