Fadoul Flops Massive Draw and Gets There
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Three players created a pot of about 10,000 and the flop came J♠8♦6♦. Michael Vela checked, and a player bet 4,500 before David Fadoul raised to 10,000.
Vela check-raised by dropping a stack of reds across the line for about 70,000 and the original bettor quickly folded as Fadoul snap-called his stack of 24,000.
David Fadoul: 9♦7♦
Michael Vela: J♥8♥
Vela flopped two pair but Fadoul had an open-ended straight draw and a flush draw. The K♣ turn was a brick but the Q♦ river improved Fadoul to a flush to double through Vela.
