Shirin Oskooi: XxXx/A♣10♦K♣7♥/Xx
Jim Collopy: XxXx/5♥9♦4♥9♠/Xx

Both players checked on sixth street over to seventh street where Collopy bet and Oskooi raised. Collopy raised and was met with a quick call.

Collopy turned over Q♥6♥3♥ for a queen-high flush, but it was no good against Oskooi who turned over 7♣6♣3♣ for an ace-high flush. Oskooi took in a sizable pot while Collopy was left with a very short stack.
