Ranalli Flushes; Stephany Out

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante

Randy Pfeifer made it 100,000 from the button and Don Ranalli shipped it in from the small blind.

The big blind folded and Pfeifer called with {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. Ranalli held {k-Spades}{8-Spades} and got there on a {10-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{7-Spades}{10-Spades}{4-Spades} board.

The very next hand an extremely short Adam Stephany shipped it in with {2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and was busted by Kimlong Trieu's jack-high.
