Jordan Young (from Event #8)

A player in early position raised to 18,000 and Jordan Young reraised it to 46,000. His opponent made the call.

The flop ran out {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}. Young bet 19,000, his opponent reraised to 50,000, Young reraised to 130,000, his opponent pushed all in, and Young made the call.

Young flipped over {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and his opponent turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. The {2-Diamonds} on the turn gave Young some hope with a flush draw. He got there on the river when the {6-Diamonds} hit.

Young is now up to around 700,000 in chips.
