Sylvia Doubles Through Gregg

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Jesse Sylvia was all in and at risk with {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} with his opponent, Tony Gregg, holding {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} keeping Gregg in the lead.

The turn was the {7-Hearts} and Sylvia was down to one card to keep his hopes alive. He would need a heart or a Queen, otherwise his day was done.

The river brought one of those needed cards... the {2-Hearts}... as Sylvia hits the flush to score the needed double up to 350,000 in chips. Gregg's lost nearly half his stack since coming back from break but is still sitting with a good amount of chips at 320,000.
