Timothy Adams: 
Alexandre Garcia Vargas: 
It was a classic flip, and the 
flop gave Adams additional outs with a flush draw. The 
turn was an interesting one and the table reacted accordingly, as Adams vaulted ahead but needed to avoid the board pairing. The dealer burned and turned, and put the 
onto the felt to complete the board, giving Adams a royal flush to stay alive in grand fashion.
