Traskevich Flops a Flush and Doubles
Level 32
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Aaron Duczak shoved from the button for 3,000,000 and Nikolay Traskevich called for his last 400,000 from the big blind.
Nikolay Traskevich: K♥4♥
Aaron Duczak: Q♠Q♦
Traskevich needed a lot of help with some hearts or a king to survive. The flop of 8♥J♥9♥ put Traskevich firmly ahead with a flush. The 8♦ turn offered Duczak a glimmer of hope, but the K♠ river wasn't what he needed and Traskevich had doubled.
