Sklenar's Suited Connectors Send One Home
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Rick Sklenar just eliminated a player who had pocket queens when he flopped a flush. Sklenar held 
and the two players got all in when the flop came all hearts. Sklenar's hand held and he was the second player in the last hour to win a huge pot with four-five suited.
Morgan Newman had the same hand, but suited to clubs instead of hearts, and busted two players when he flopped a flush and his hand held as well.
