Flush On Board

A shot-stacked Cylus Watson moved all in from the cutoff for 575,000 and was called by David Baskin in the small blind. Marc Ladouceur then moved all in over the top from the big, and Balkin got out of the way.

Showdown

Ladouceur{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Watson{K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

The {K-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Spades} flop gave Watson the lead with kings, but the running {3-Spades} turn and {5-Spades} river would put a flush on the board for a chopped pot.
