Event 5: Fives Get Flushed

Event 5 -  $350 + $50 Big Stack No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

The blinds are at 100k/200k/30k ante.  John Hinds (Greensville, NC) is in the small blind and makes it 500k to go.  Larry Samet (Wellesley, MA) calls from the big.  Flop comes 10♠3♠2♥ and Hinds checks.  Samet bets 1.5 million.  Hinds then goes over the top and announces all-in...and Samet snap calls.  Hinds flips over his 55, but sees that Samet has many outs when he tables Q♠7♠ for 2 overcards, and of course the flush draw.  The 5♥ on the turn actually gives Hinds a set and takes away 6 of Samet's outs...but he still has the flush draw, which (unfortunately for Hinds) comes to fruition when the J♠ hits the river.  Samet now has over 10 million in chips and is the chip leader at this 3-handed final table.
