Santora Flushes Volpe

Level 18 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

In a battle of the blinds, Christopher Santora ended up all in and at risk before the flop for his last 126,000 out of the small blind. He was up against Paul Volpe in the big blind with the superior stack and the duo turned over the following cards:

Christopher Santora: {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Paul Volpe: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{9-Spades}

The {7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop gave Santora a flush draw and he immediately got there on the {4-Diamonds} turn to ensure the double up, the {J-Spades} on the river was a mere formality.
