Middle Pair Is Good

A player in middle position raised it up preflop, Bryan Huang called, a player in the hijack re-raised and both players called.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, the initial preflop raiser and Huang checked and the hijack player bet out. The first middle position player called, Huang re-raised, the hijack re-raised the middle position player folded, Huang re-raised one last time to cap it and the hijack called.

The turn was {6-Clubs}, Huang bet and the hijacked called. The same thing happened on the river {3-Clubs} and Huang pointed at the hijack player basically implying he was good and he tabled {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a missed flush draw and middle pair. His opponent mucked however, and much to Huang's surprise he scooped the pot and is now up to 7,000.
