Marchese Onwards

Further joy for Thomas Marchese -- he's just knocked out an opponent who got his short stack in preflop with {Q-Spades} {10-Spades} against Marchese's {Q-Clubs} {K-Clubs}. Some excitement from the board but ultimately the best hand won as it came down {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} to give Marchese the flush and prompt his opponent to make a dignified and gentlemanly exit.
