Hong Left Short

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A player in the cutoff had a bet of 3,000 in front of him and was facing a raise to 9,000 by Jinho Hong on the button. After some consideration the cutoff player called to send the two heads-up to the flop.

The cutoff checked after the {q-Spades}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop and then called when Hong continued for 6,000.

Action checked through the {k-Spades} turn to the {10-Spades} river. The cutoff, unconcerned that there was a four liner to a straight flush on the board, tossed out 12,600. Hong thought long and hard but eventually made the call. The cutoff somewhat sheepishly turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} for the flush. Hong could not beat it, sending his chip count down below half starting stack.
