Valentin Vornicu

On the turn of a board reading 6♣A♣2♣10♦, Valentin Vornicu's remaining 11,000 or so found their way into the middle from the hijack, with Aldrice Bell trying to bust him from early position.

Valentin Vornicu: 6♥6♦ All in
Aldrice Bell: J♣4♣

Vornicu had flopped a set, but was trailing Bell's flush.

Fortunately for Vornicu, the A♥ paired the board on the river to give him a full house and keep his Main Event hopes alive.
