Nobody Expects the Spanish Inquisition

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

...but sometimes that doesn't matter. Chris Amaral defended his big blind against a standard button raise, then checked an all-diamond flop, {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. The button continued for 4,100 and Amaral called. Amaral, with 12,200 behind, checked the {q-Clubs} turn. He then snap-called after the button bet enough to put Amaral all in. Amaral flopped the king-high flush, {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. His opponent was drawing dead with {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. Cue up the river card and double Amaral up to 38,000.
