Flush Over Flush Cripples Trace O'Connor

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

With 25,000 or so in the pot and a board reading {8-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, action exploded between Trace O'Connor and Hendrik Latz and resulted in the latter getting his stack of 32,400 in the middle.

O'Connor: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Latz: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Both players had turned a flush, but O'Connor's was second best. The meaningless {4-Spades} was run out on the river, and O'Connor sent all but 4,400 of his chips over toe Latz, who doubled to 90,000.
