Jaffe Doubles Up

On a board showing {K-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} Jonathan Jaffe and Gavin Griffin exchanged raises until Jaffe was all in.

Jaffe: {Q-Hearts} {5-Hearts}
Griffin: {J-?} {10-?}

The {9-Spades} then fell on the turn giving Gavin the nut straight and the lead in the hand, but a heart popped off on the river giving Jaffe a flush and new life.

After the hand, Jaffe pulled within a few thousand of Griffin, practically evening up the match.
