With the board showing on the turn and more than 350K already in the pot, Frankie Flowers checked the big blind, and James Scott moved all in under the gun for 368,000.

Flowers went into the tank for a long time, eventually saying, “I was trying to envision if this was cash, if I’d put it all in. And I would.”

Then, as he studied his opponent, Frankie said, “Why would you do this? Why would you go all in?” Then, a few moments later, he added, “One of us is gonna win this tournament.”

Flowers eventually called, and Scott showed for an overpair. Flowers turned over for an open-ended straight-flush draw, and he had the full 15 outs he was hoping for.

The river card was the , and the pocket kings held up for Scott to win the pot and double up to more than a million in chips.

James Scott  –  1,090,000  (68 bb)
Frankie Flowers  –  150,000  (9 bb)

Nathan Grow has been MIA for quite a while, and he had plenty of chips to weather an extended break, but he’s back in his seat now with about 600K.

Nathan Grow  –  600,000  (38 bb)

Frankie Flowers  –  665,000  (42 bb)
