Braband Flushes Opponent to the Rail

Tom Braband open-shoved from the small blind with {Q-Hearts} {8-Hearts}. The big blind made a snap call and tabled {A-?} {K-?}. A board of {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} made two pair for the big blind but also made a flush for Braband. He eliminated the big blind on this hand and is up to about 80,000 in chips.
