There is a straddle to $800. Farah Galfond open-raises UTG to $3,500 with A♣Qand Rob Yong makes an isolation 3-bet with A♥8♥ to $15,000, only Farah calls. Pot Size: $31,900

Heads-up to an interesting flop of K910♣. Rob flops the Nut Flush Draw and Galfond a gutshot to the Nut Straight. She checks, Yong makes a $15,000 cbet and Farah check-calls. Pot Size: $61,900

The 8♠ on the turn is a great card for Rob as he now has the best hand to go alongside his draw. It goes check-check. Pot Size: $61,900

The 6♥ on the river brings all kinds of draws. Farah Galfond tries to represent the flush, but unfortunately for her Rob has the Nuts and snap-calls.

Rob Yong wins the biggest pot of episode 9 worth a whopping $204,100.

Farah gets stacked again: $162,700

In the last hand of High Stakes Poker Season 11 Episode 9, Farah Galfond got felted again in a cooler situation.

Farah raises from the cur-off to $1,100 with 10♠6♠ and Rob 3-bets her again from the button with Q♣8♣, everybody else folds. Pot Size: $7,500

Once again they see a flop heads-up, which brings 10♥J♠9♠. A classic setup as Yong flops the straight, while Galfond has middle pair plus a flush draw.

Farah check-raises Rob’s $4,000 cbet to $16,000, Yong puts her All-in for her remaining $61,600 and she calls it off. Pot Size: $162,700

They run it once and Yong is a 60% to $40% favourite.

Farah needs to hit one of her nine outs, but neither the Q on the turn, nor the 4♣ on the river is one of them and she gets stacked by Rob Yong again in a $162,700 pot.
