Yu Turns a Flush to Double Up

Level 3 : 500/1,500, 1,500 ante

The flop read {q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts} with around 17,000 in the middle and two players remaining in the hand. The action was checked to Alex Condon on the button who bet 12,000 and Ben Yu check-raised all in for 79,500 from the hijack. Condon took his time, using up one of his time extension before making the call.

Ben Yu: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Alex Condon: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Condon was out front with a pair of queens against Yu's flush draw. However, the {3-Hearts} on the turn gave Yu a flush and a lock on the hand. The {6-Clubs} completed the board and Yu doubled up, leaving Condon with under 10,000 chips.
