Barry Rivers a Flush for The Knockout
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Cody Bracero limped in from under the gun, as did Daniel Barry in early position. It folded to the big blind, who checked his option.
After the 5♦2♥8♥ flop the big blind checked to Bracero who bet out 5,000. Barry made the call before the big blind raised all in for 16,900. Bracero folded and Barry made the call to put the big blind at risk.
Big Blind: K♥5♠ 
Daniel Barry: J♥9♥
The big blind was ahead with his pair of fives but would need to fade a heart or the two over cards from Barry to stay alive. The 7♦ on the turn gave Barry more outs with a nine to make a straight, but the river was the A♥ to give him a flush and eliminate his opponent.
