Pärssinen Doubles Through Bowers
Level 25
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Eelis Pärssinen raised to 280,000 in the cutoff and Jonathan Bowers then three-bet the pot to 920,000 in the small blind. It folded back to Pärssinen and he gave it half a minute before pushing all-in, Bowers called.
Eelis Pärssinen: K♦10♦10♣3♣ 
Jonathan Bowers: A♥A♠6♠2♣
The J♦10♠9♦ flop gave Pärssinen a set, gutshot and flush draw. There was a sweat with the Q♠ turn as Bowers picked up the spades flush draw. However, it was Pärssinen who improved to a flush with the 2♦ river as he doubled for 980,000.
After the hand was over, chip leader Joshua Adkins told David Benyamine "I just wanted to tell you you were my favourite on High Stakes Poker".
Bowers chimed in with "you were my least favourite" to which Benyamine replied "I believe you".
