"You have a flush?" Balcarcel asked, turning over K♣Q♣. Lambert indeed showed A♦7♦ for the nut flush, and Balcarcel was sent to the rail after the 6♦ came on the river.

Jim Lemire: A♦7♥ 
Sean Boudreau: K♥J♦
"At least I can say I got my money in ahead," Lemire said, but he didn't remain in the lead for long as the J♣J♥3♦ flop gave Boudreau trips.
