Armstrong Clubs Up

We just caught the tail end of this pot in the Blue section. The board showed {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {6-Clubs} when we walked up, and there was about 3,500 in the pot. Jamie Armstrong was first to act, and he put out a bet of 2,000 straight. He was heads-up, and his opponent promptly raised to 5,000 total. Armstrong didn't waste much time calling with {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs} for the flush, and his hand was the best. That little flushy pot moves him up to 32,900 and sets him moving in the right direction here in the early going.
