Henderson Scores Big Pot Off Mefodichev

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Vladimir Mefodichev opened to 180,000 from the button and found one caller in Hugh Henderson in the big blind.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and Henderson checked again, prompting a 225,000 bet from Mefodichev. Henderson then check-raised to 525,000 and Mefodichev made the call.

The {2-Spades} completed the board and Henderson led out for a hefty 1,250,000, sending Mefodichev deep into the tank. He eventually committed calling chips and Henderson flipped over {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a flopped flush. Mefodichev peaked one last time at his cards and mucked - awarding the pot to Henderson.
