Ashby Escapes the Grim Reaper

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

With around 40,000 in the pot and a flop of {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{3-Spades}, Matthew Greenwood bet 32,000 from the big blind and was met by an all-raise to 122,500 from Richard Ashby. Greenwood thought for nearly two minutes before he made the call.

Ashby: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Greenwood: {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

"You're good," Greenwood said upon seeing Ashby's cards. The {Q-Hearts} turn gave Greenwood both flush and full house outs, and Ashby actually thought he lost when the {3-Hearts} river completed the said flush. Fortunately for Ashby, it was also the right card to pair the board to give him a winning full house.
