Vitch Turns Buried Tens Into a Flush to Double

Level 12 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

Chris Vitch had the bring-in, and John Monnette completed. Vitch raised to 12,000, and Monnette called.

Vitch bet on fourth and fifth streets with Monnette calling each time. Vitch was all in for 9,000 on sixth. Monnette called, and here is how each player's boards read:

Vitch: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} / {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Monnette: {Q-Clubs}{9-Hearts} / {A-Spades}{8-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{3-Hearts}

With Vitch in the lead with his buried tens and a flush draw against Monnette's gutshot and overcards, Vitch squeezed the {J-Diamonds} on seventh to improve to a flush.

Monnette revealed the meaningless {6-Hearts} to drop to 195,000, and Vitch doubled to 95,000 in chips.
