Rusnak's Aces Hold for a Double-Up

Level 32 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Frank Flowers opened to 300,000 from early position and Francis Rusnak three-bet shoved all in for 1,185,000 on the button. The action was back on Flowers who decided to give Rusnak some action with {8-Spades}{7-Spades}. Unfortunately for him, Rusnak turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and was well out front.

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{2-Spades} giving Flowers a flush draw that he was sure he was going to hit. "Sorry man," he said from across the table. "Right on the turn. You're gonna be drawing dead."

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and Rusnak was still out front with his pair of aces. The river brought the {4-Hearts} and Flowers looked as surprised as anyone to see that he missed his flush draw. Rusnak scored a double-up to keep his tournament hopes alive.
