Gelman's Big Slick is Better Than Praisman's

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Arie Praisman opened and Gary Gelman moved all in for 1,165,000. Praisman called and the two tabled their hands, revealing the same two cards.

Gary Gelman: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Arie Praisman: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The two players were almost guaranteed a split pot, but then the dealer spread out {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} on the flop and Gelman flopped a flush. A {k-Hearts} on the turn averted any possible straight flush outs and Gelman now had Praisman drawing dead to the {q-Hearts} river card. Gelman took down the pot for a complete double, moving him to the top of the leader board.
