Amit Makhija raised to 60,000 on the button and Patrik Antonius called in the small blind. The flop came {10-Diamonds}

{6-Clubs}

His {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

trailed Antonius' K-9, and while the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

that hit on the turn gave Amit a flush draw it was the {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

on the river that gave Makhija the pot and kept him alive in the tournament.
