No-Limit Hold'em

Tyler Brown opened to 160,000 from middle position and Cole Jackson shoved from the small blind for around 720,000. When it got back to Brown, he called.

Cole Jackson: K♣Q♦ All in
Tyler Brown: 5♦5♠

It was an all-too-familiar flip and one that Brown managed to win as the 6♦8♠3♣3♦2♣ runout kept his pocket fives in the lead, sending Jackson to the rail.
