Lake Finds a Spade to Survive
Level 16
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
There was a pot of around 1,000,000 on a flop of 3♠K♠2♠ and Samantha Lake had her remaining stack of 1,030,000 in the middle and was put at risk by Yassin Mahmoud.
Samantha Lake: A♠Q♣ 
Yassin Mahmoud: 10♣10♠
Lake had two attempts to spike her overcards or flush draw, but only needed one as the J♠ gave her the nut flush. There was no card in the deck that could help Mahmoud as he watched the 2♣ roll off, meaning he had to cough up a chunk of chips and send them over to Lake.
