Up and Down Goes the G-Saw

High Rollers:

Markus Golser won a big pot when his flopped flush draw turned into two pair and Tony G just mucked -- Tony was down to just 20,000 or so but doubled up a few hands later. Back up to 43,000.

That double-up:

Tony G: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {J-Spades} {8-Hearts} -- all in on the flop
Golser: {Q-Spades} {5-Spades} {4-Spades} {3-Clubs}

Board: {8-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}

Tony was back up to 43,000, and after picking up a series of small pots, found himself with the chip advantage. A little while later and it looked as though it could all be over, as Golser was all in and called preflop:

Golser: {K-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {7-Spades} {4-Spades}
Tony G: {Q-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {10-Spades} {5-Spades}

Board: {A-Spades} {8-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}

Amazingly, they chopped it, and play continues.
