Sweeney Out-Flushes Dejonghe
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Lander Dejonghe had open-raised to 24,000 preflop and Dylan Sweeney made the call from the big blind. The Q?7?9? flop was then dealt and Dejonghe continued for 25,000.
Sweeney came out with a check-raise to 82,000, after which Dejonghe shoved for 305,000. Sweeney asked for a count but made the call before it could be completed to put his opponent at risk.
Lander Dejonghe: 9?8?
Dylan Sweeney: K?J?
Dejonghe was ahead with his pair of nines, but the 2? turn had him drawing dead. The 10? river gave Sweeney a straight in addition to his flush, and Dejonghe's lesser flush was added to the muck.
A huge pot for Sweeney, who ended up with roughly double the average stack.
