Flush Over Flush Sends Wilkie to The Rail

Level 11 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The player first-to-act opened limped, Steve Wilkie limped from the lojack, the small blind completed and the big blind checked his option.

The flop came {9-Spades}{q-Spades}{8-Spades} and the player in the small led out for 4,000. Action folded over to Wilkie, who went all in. Everyone folded except the small blind, who called to put Wilkie at risk.

Small blind: {j-Spades}{6-Spades}
Wilkie: {3-Spades}{5-Spades}

Both players had flopped a flush, but Wilkie was left drawing dead with his smaller flush.

An irrelevant {7-Clubs} and {q-Clubs} completed the board and Wilkie was eliminated from the tournament.
