Action folded to Peter Ippolito in the cutoff who raised to 110,000. Alex Queen then re-raised to 285,000 from the small blind. When action was back on Ippolito he thought for a bit before announcing he was all in. Queen snap-called putting his tournament life at risk.

Ippolito: {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Queen: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Queen was well ahead and seemed poised to double up. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} giving Queen a pair of aces but also giving Ippolito a flush draw. The turn brought a harmless {4-Spades}, but the {j-Diamonds} on the river completed Ippolito's flush and sent Queen to the rail in sixth place.
