Dramatic Bustout

It was "suckout city" during a hand we just witnessed between Jake Flores and Kien Tieu. The two players got all the chips in the middle preflop with Flores' hand dominating.

Flores: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Tieu: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The flop gave Tieu some flush outs when it came {5-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. A simutaneous "ooooh" came from the table and rail when the {k-Spades} fell on the turn completing Tieu's flush. That wasn't the end of the drama though as the {2-Hearts} came on the river giving Flores a full house. Flores pounded the table in excitement and Tieu looked absolutely devastated.

Tieu hit the rail and Flores stack grew to 325,000.
