Suseela Cracks Hughes' Aces
Michael Riddle opened the action with a raise to 50,000 from the hijack, before Vijesh Suseela three-bet all in for 215,000 from the cutoff.
Michael Hughes on the button then used one time extension, before making the call. It folded back to Riddle who got out of the way, to leave the players heads up, with Suseela at risk.
Vijesh Suseela: A♦K♠
Michael Hughes: A♠A♥
It was a cooler for Suseela who ran into Hughes' aces. The J♦2♦9♥ flop left Suseela with only back door draws, but the 4♦ on the turn brought in one of those draws in the form of a flush draw. Suseela was already out of his seat and gave a big fist pump after the river brought the 7♦ to give him a flush and the double up.
The original raiser Riddle and Hughes were both eliminated shortly after the hand.
