Rafferty Flushes Kumar
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
All the chips went in on a flop of 
with Tom Rafferty (big blind) check-raising Anish Kumar's 70,000 continuation bet after calling a bet of 90,000 pre-flop. Kumar called and the two flipped over their cards with Rafferty the player at risk.
Tom Rafferty: 
Anish Kumar: 
Kumar had the lead with a pair of nines, with Rafferty holding a flush draw and an overcard, but losing some of his outs when Kumar binked a set on the turn. However, the poker gods are fickle and Rafferty got there on the 
river to earn a timely double, effectively swapping places with Kumar in the pecking order after the hand.
