Yue Liu Has a Big Heart

Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On a heads-up turn of J?8?5?9?, Yue Liu bet 12,000 into the pot of 24,000 and Aleksei Istomin went into the tank for a bit before making the call.
The river then came the 8?, pairing the board, and both players decided to check and the cards were tabled.
Istomin flipped over 7?7? for a seven-high flush but Liu tabled A?6? for the nut flush to win the pot, boosting him to 90,000.
