A player in the cutoff bet 3,000 on a flop of 10♠6♦5♠ before Brian Rushton, in the big blind, raised to 11,000. The cutoff then moved all in and Rushton called for around 30,000.
Brian Rushton: 8♠4♠
Opponent: 6♥6♣
Rushton was up against his opponent's set of sixes and was looking to complete his draws. The K♠ on the turn was the help he was looking for as Rushton now made a flush. The J♣ river failed to pair the board and Rushton doubled up.
"Trying to do what the guy did last year," a tablemate asked Rushton, evoking Espen Jorstad's run last year when he went from 17,000 on Day 2 to the title.
