When we saw players standing up and exclaiming their surprise we knew something exciting was happening at Table 370. On a board of {4-Spades}{J-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Spades} Yashar Darian and Douglas Lang were betting into each other and after a series of bets Lang was all in and called.

Cards were tabled and Lang held {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a queen high flush, which normally would be a great hand to have, but his opponent Darian had {A-Spades}{6-Spades} for the nut flush. There was nothing Lang could do as the irrelevant {5-Spades} hit on the river.

Lang was one of our huge chip leaders from the begining of today and maintained a very healthy stack until this hand. Lang will be leaving with $11,401 for his play today.
