No Diamonds for Akkari

Andre Akkari checked a {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, and his opponent bet 5,000. Akkari check-raised him to 11,000, and the player responded by moving all in for 23,625. Akkari made the call, confidently turning over {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a flush draw with a gutshot. His opponent held {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for top pair, top kicker. The {3-Clubs} turn and {5-Spades} river were both blanks for Akkari. After doubling his tablemate, Akkari was left with 22,000.
