Tan Rivers a Flush to Send Fragale Packing
Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
On a flop of 9?5?Q?, Sandor Gyorffy had bet 150,000 then both Maurice Tan and Antonio Fragale shoved their stacks into the middle. Gyorffy was thinking for a while but eventually laid his hand down.
Antonio Fragale: A?Q? 
Maurice Tan: 9?8?
Fragale's pair was in the lead and stayed there after the 3? turn, but the river was one card too many to sweat as the A? gave him two pair, but improved Tan to a flush. After checking the stacks, Tan's was bigger, which meant Fragale's trip to the payout desk came earlier than he had hoped.
