Valenzuela Turns a Flush to Stay Alive
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Leonardo Valenzuela was all-in for around 365,000 on a flop of 4♣A♥4♥, with Yuhang Chen being the player trying to end his Main Event journey.
Leonardo Valenzuela: K♥9♥ 
Yuhang Chen: A♣9♣
Chen had top pair against the flush draw of Valenzuela. Valenzuela received instant service on the J♥ turn, improving to a flush and just needed to avoid a four or ace on the river to double. A clean 3♦ dropped and Valenzuela earned the much-needed double-up.
