Poker brings with it several satisfying feelings: successfully bluffing one's opponents out of a pot, making the nuts, and cracking pocket aces. That was Jacob Chen's recent lot. With approximately 950 chips in the pot, he led out for 625 on a board of {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

. His lone opponent raised all in for 1,500 total and Chen made the call, showing {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

for a diamond draw. His opponent had two pair with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Clubs}

and was left drawing at a full house when the turn fell {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

. The full house never came. The river {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

sent Chen's opponent to the rail.
