Adam Aronson moves all in from the button for 1,675,000, and Jeff Vertes vertes quickly calls from the big blind with [AdAh]. Aronson turns over [6c6s], and he’ll need to improve to stay alive.
There is a six in the window as the flop comes [8h6h3s], giving Aronson the lead with a set of sixes. Someone in the Vertes section yells, "Show us an ace!" Another person calmly says, "Any heart will do."
The turn card is — the [7h]. Vertes picks up a flush draw, and he’ll win with any ace or any heart but the three of hearts.
The river card is — the [9h]!
Vertes reclaims the victory with a runner-runner ace-high heart flush to eliminate Adam Aronson in fifth place.
