A Bigger Piece of the Pie

They're falling like intoxicated lemmings on ice skates here in round two, the next man to feel the cold of the ice being Chad Huber. Making a minimum raise to 3,600 preflop with {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}, Huber caught a piece of the {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop and duly pushed all in for 9,300.

Unfortunately for him, opponent Jason Young held an even bigger piece of the pie with {A-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for top pair and the nut flush draw, a dominating hand that stood up comfortably come the {9-Hearts} turn and {J-Hearts} river.
