The Richey Get Richer

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Brett Richey and two opponents players saw a flop of {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. One player checked, another opponent bet 3,700 and Richey raised to 10,000. The first player check-raised all in, the orginal bettor folded, but Richey made the call putting his stack at risk.

Opponent: {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}
Richey: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Richey did not find a diamond when the {6-Hearts} turned, however the {8-Diamonds} spiked on the river giving him a winning flush and doubling him to 85,000.
