The player on the button raised all in for about 85,000 and John Brown called from the small blind. Before the hands were turned over (waiting for the other tables to finish), they informed each other they each had ace-king.

“You better not make a flush,” said the the player on the button.

When it was time tun the hands over, Brown showed AcKc and his opponent tabled AhKd.

The board came down 8c4d3c9c3h, indeed giving Brown a flush to eliminate his opponent and send the remaining player in Flight E into the money.

John Brown – 351,000 (58 bb)
