And the Worst Shall be First

In one of the biggest hands we've seen all day, a player in middle position moved all in for 2,475 and got called before Ricardo Queiroz reraised all in for 2,500 more.

The original caller made the second call, and the hands were shown.

Player 1: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Player 2: {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Queiroz: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

When the board came {2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, Queiroz had enough heart to make his flush and take the pot, giving him a chip stack of nearly 13,000.
