Suvarna and Heath Both Make Flushes
Santhosh Suvarna open-raised to 50,000 before Ben Heath put out a three-bet to 140,000 from the next seat over. The action folded back to Suvarna, who put in the call.
The J♥4♥5♥ flop was then checked by Suvarna and Heath made a small continuation-bet of 65,000. Suvarna was not going anywhere yet, however, and made the call. The 6♦ turn was then checked by both players before the 6♥ river brought the fourth heart on the board.
Suvarna checked for a third time, after which Heath deliberated for some time before settling on a bet of 380,000 chips. Suvarna quickly made the call and heath tabled A♠K♥ for the king-high flush.
Suvarna had one better, however, as he showed down A♥Q♦ for the ace-high flush. He scooped the pot as he crossed the two-million mark just before the final break of Day 1.
