Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Wasim Assaf and Daniel Samson saw a flop of 10♦6♣3♣ as Assaf got 130,000 in the middle from the hijack and Samson put him at risk in middle position.
Wasim Assaf: A♣K♣ 
Daniel Samson: J♣10♣
Both players had a flush draw, while Samson was ahead with a pair of tens as the 2♠ fell on the turn. The river was the A♦ and Assaf spiked top pair to win the pot and earn a massive double up in a pot worth around 350,000.
"Sick river," Samson said.
