With the board showing Spade QHeart 6Heart 3Heart 2 on the turn and about 60,000 already in the pot, Aldo Perez checks from the small blind, and the UTG player bets 15,000. Another player calls from middle position, and Perez check-raises all in for 38,900.

The UTG player tanks for a while before he calls, and the middle-position player tanks for a while before he folds.

Perez shows Heart AHeart J for an ace-high flush, and the UTG player turns over Spade 6Club 6 for a set of sixes. Perez needs his flush to hold to stay alive.

The river card is the Spade 10, and Perez wins the pot with his flush to nearly triple up in chips.
