Sexton Takes From Farber

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante

On a flop showing {7-Spades}{9-Spades}{j-Spades} and with a pot already containing over 4,000, Mike Sexton bet 2,500 from the big blind before calling the raise for 7,000 from Jay Farber on the button.

The turn {2-Spades} brought no betting action and the dealer showed a {j-Diamonds} on the river. Sexton first checked, and called a last bet for 5,000 from Farber. The latter turned over {10-Spades}{8-Hearts} for the straight and the flush, but it wasn't enough to win the pot, facing {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades} in Sexton's hand for a better flush.
