Flush Draw Bricks But Wins Pot

Level 19 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

In a roughly 380,000 pot the action was picked up on the turn showing {5-Hearts}{k-Spades}{8-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. Kennii Nguyen bet 320,000, enough to cover his opponents 270,000 chip stack.

The opponent went well in the tank but eventually made the call putting themselves at risk.

Kennii Nguyen {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Opponent {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Both players found themselves on a flush draw but Nguyen's was better with ace-high. Nguyen stood up saying "Pair the board" before the {3-Clubs} hit the river eliminating his opponent.
