Casey Stewart: J?J? 
Justin Zaki: 10?8?
Zaki was ahead with two pair against the overpair of Stewart. The A? on the turn brought a sweat as Stewart picked up a flush a draw. Then, the dealer peeled the Q? on the river to give Stewart a flush as he doubled in dramatic fashion to win a pot of over 100 big blinds.
