Flush over Flush over Queens for Lansade
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Henri Lansade was seen pretty happy in front of a 825,000 chip-stack. According to him and his neighbors, a player opened from under the gun. Lansade called from the small blind, and Samuel Fournier defended from the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 9♣8♥2♥, and both Lansade and Fournier check-called after the under-the-gun player made a continuation bet.
On the 4♥ turn, the player under the gun shoved for 109,000. And once again, both Lansade and Fournier check-called. However the 9♥ river brought no more action.
Under-the-gun player: QxQx 
Samuel Fournier: Q♥6♥
Henri Lansade: K♥10♥
Lansade hit the best flush and scooped this massive pot, while the under-the-gun player was eliminated. Lansade now reached 900,000 chips.
