Billy Pilossoph was all in from the cutoff for 205,000 with AcJc, and he needed to improve to stay alive against the 7h7c of Drew O’Connell, who was under the gun.

The board came 10c6c3h2cAs, and Pilossoph turned an ace-high flush to win the pot and double up in chips.

The river card was the Qc, the big blind bet 85,000, and Pilossoph called with KhQh for two pair, aces and queens. His opponent mucked, and Pilossoph won the pot to reach 700,000.
