Tataryan Makes the Call on the Turn

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

The board read {q-Spades}{3-Spades}{10-Spades} and action checked to Hakop Tataryan who bet 3,000 from late position into a pot around 5,800. The small blind check-called and the turn fell the {j-Spades}.

The small blind then moved all in for 5,350 and Tataryan let out a big sigh before making the call. Tataryan showed {7-Spades}{8-Spades} for a flopped flush and his opponent then showed {4-Spades}{5-Spades} for a lower flopped flush.

Tataryan had his opponent drawing dead to the {a-Hearts} on the river. With that pot, Tataryan has an early-in-the-day chip lead.
