Pay Day for Gray
Level 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Matthew Gray opened to 10,000 from the button and received a call from Francisco Fernandez in the big blind.
Both players checked the 7♥3♦2♦ flop leading to the 5♠ turn. Fernandez bet 12,000 and was called by Gray.
Fernandez sized up with a nearly pot-sized bet of 50,000 on the 9♦ river. Gray raised to 140,000 and Fernandez snap-called. Fernandez turned over Q♦7♦ for a queen-high flush but Gray showed down K♦4♦ for a king-high flush to take down a massive pot and catapult himself into the chip lead.
