Katz Doubles Through Reixach

Level 16 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Cary Katz (pictured) was the only caller to Sergi Reixach's preflop raise to 60,000. The flop of {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts} got all the chips into the middle as Katz moved all-in and was called by Reixach.

Katz had the second nut flush draw with {5-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} but needed plenty of help from the deck as Reixach had {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}. He announced that he'd "take a chop", hoping for a queen, but his luck was in further than that as he turned the flush after the {8-Hearts} landed. The river of {2-Clubs} completed the hand and saw Katz double right back into contention.
