Runner-Runner Flush for Higgins

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Action folded around to Brent Barfield on the button, who raised to 3,000 off a daunting stack exceeding 300,000. The small blind folded, and Matt Higgins called in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, and Barfield continued for 4,100. Higgins called with no hesitation.

Both players checked the {j-Diamonds} turn, which completed a straight draw and added a second flush draw.

The {8-Diamonds} river went check-check as well, and Higgins showed {q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a rivered flush, having outdrawn Barfield's {a-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a flopped two pair.
