Popiolek Spikes the River For a Double

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

With around 40,000 in the pot on a flop of 6♥7♥K♣, Uladzimir Zhyharu bet 10,000 from the cutoff before Grzegorz Popiolek raised to 41,000 in early position. Zhyharu then moved all in and Popiolek called for 96,000.

Grzegorz Popiolek: A♥Q♥ All in
Uladzimir Zhyharu: K♥Q♦

Zhyharu was ahead with top pair, while Popiolek had the nut flush draw. The turn was the 3♣, but the 10♥ river gave Popiolek his flush and a double up.
