Who Doesn't Have the Flush?

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

We just caught a pretty crazy hand over at Greg Raymer's table. Raymer was in the big blind against opponents in the small blind and on the button. The flop came out {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, and it was checked to the button, who bet 450. The small blind called, then Raymer check raised to 1,425. Both players called, and the turn brought the {a-Diamonds}. It seemed like an action card, but all three players checked and saw the {8-Hearts} hit the river. The small blind bet out 2,500, and both Raymer and the button called fairly quickly. When the cards were turned up, everyone was surprised to see what they had.

Small Blind: {q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Button: {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Raymer: Mucked but said he had 10-high flush

All three players rivered a flush, but the button's was best. Raymer lost the hand, but is still very healthy at around 12,000.
