Bruce MacGregor Makes A Flush To Jump Jack Ward

Bruce MacGregor looked down to find {A-Spades}{10-Spades} in the hole, and with his short stack of only 88,000 he moved all-in before the flop. Jack Ward, who is looking to make the final table of this event for the second straight year, woke up with {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and made the quick call.

MacGregor was in bad shape and needed aces or spades to appear in a hurry. The flop came {J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Ward's pocket queens appeared to be in good shape. The {6-Spades} on the turn complicated matters, giving MacGregor the nut flush draw, and he now had 12 outs to give him the win.

River: {3-Spades}

One of those outs arrived and MacGregor made his flush, doubling him up to 190,000. Ward will have to regroup after dropping to 240,000 with the bad beat.
