First One for Abela

Christopher Abela
Christopher Abela

Jeffrey Hong completed his button and Christopher Abela opted to check.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Abela check-shoved with the bigger stack after Hong bet 1,000. Hong contemplated for a while and then made the call for the 12,400 he had behind.

Jeffrey Hong; {q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}
Christopher Abela: {j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

They both had a flush draw with Hong the better of it with the higher diamond card but Abela had also flopped a pair of fives.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} which didn't change things and neither did the {6-Hearts}. First game goes to Abela and they both agreed to take a 10-minute break before resuming play.
