Dan Simcelescu: 8♠8♥
Yann Travasa: 9♦9♠
Simcelescu used his stand up equity, grabbing his jacket as the flop came 9♥J♦7♥ to give Travasa a set. Simcelescu did pick up a straight draw and gained outs for the flush on the Q♥ turn. The river came the 4♥ and Simcelescu completed his flush.
"Heart! Yes! Wow!", said Simcelescu. "I was shouting for the ten, but then I saw the heart". His opponent didn't really respond, but handed over the chips to double up Simcelescu's stack.
