Chris Dowling opens to 1,100 from early position, and is called by Harriwin Selvarajoo in the cutoff, along with the players in the blinds.

On the Spade QSpade JHeart J flop, Dowling continues with a bet of 2,000, and is met with a quick raise to 5,000 by his opponent, forcing out the blinds. After a brief period of thought, Dowling calls.

The Club 4Heart 6 turn and river are checked through. Dowling says “You win, ten-high”, showing Spade 10Spade 9, a promising flop having developed into nothing. Selvarajoo shows Spade 5Spade 4 for two pair jacks and fours, taking the pot, although he will count himself lucky the spade draw didn’t come in.

Harriwin Selvarajoo – 55,000 (91 bb)
Chris Dowling – 31,500 (52 bb)
