Italian Pirate Juggles Flush Draws and Spelling

Max Pescatori, Eli Elezra, and another player saw a {q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop three ways. The first player checked, Pescatori potted, and both opponents called. The {5-Hearts} turn earned another check from the player first to act, and Pescatori moved all in for 3,500. "How do you spell chiropractor?" Phil Ivey asked the table while Elezra thought. "It's with a C," responded the Italian Pirate.

Once the proper spelling for Ivey's text message had been cleared up, Elezra made the call and the other player folded.

Pescatori: {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Elezra: {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}

The river fell the {8-Hearts}, and Pescatori's heart flush took the pot. He's up to 15,000 and has all of his rebuy chips stored. Elezra has 15,000 too, but he's down to two rebuys.
