Katz Gets Flushed

There was around 35,000 in the middle heading to the river between Scott Ball and Cary Katz. The board read {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Spades} and Ball led out with a bet of 30,000. Katz ripped all in and Ball instantly called off his stack of 101,000.

Katz showed {8-Spades}{5-Spades} for a rivered flush but Ball held {a-Spades}{3-Spades} for a bigger flush to earn himself a double up and a big lead.
