Cordova Goes Flush Over Flush

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Don McDonald limped from early position and Alex Cordova raised directly to his right to 25,000. Action was folded back around to McDonald who called and the two players went heads up to the flop.

The dealer spread the flop of {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} and both players checked. Both players also checked on the {K-Spades} turn.

When the {6-Spades} came on the river, McDonald bet 40,000 and Cordova instantly called. McDonald showed {3-Spades}{2-Spades} for a baby flush, and Cordova rolled over {Q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a bigger flush.
