Schrijvers Spikes a Flush to Stay Alive
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Markkos Ladev raised to 11,000 from the cutoff and was three-bet to 33,000 by Dennis Schrijvers on the button. After the blinds folded, Ladev four-bet jammed for Schrijvers' remaining 170,000. Schrijvers used two of his time-bank cards before eventually making the call.
Dennis Schrijvers: 8?8? 
Markkos Ladev: A?J?
A classic race would determine Schrijvers' future in the event. The flop of A?7?10? put Ladev ahead with top pair but Schrijvers had picked up a flush draw. The Q? turn didn't change anything, but the 4? river improved Schrijvers to a flush and he had doubled up through Ladev.
