Six-Card Flush Sees Stokes Extend Chip Lead

Ivan "ILS007" Stokes" raised to 2,380,000 from the small blind and Juan "xPastorcitox" Pastor called from the big blind. Stokes then checked on the 6?10?J? board and Pastor put out a bet of 1,255,625, which Stokes called.

The K? turn saw Pastor up the ante to 5,600,000 after another check from Stokes, who once again made the call. The 5? brought a flush on the board and both players now quickly checked.

Stokes showed down Q?2? for the second nuts and he scooped a fairly large pot to extend his chip lead.
