Lack of Diamonds Saves Negreanu

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Steve O'Dwyer raised to 95,000 under the gun with {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Daniel Negreanu called to his immediate left with {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody called from the button with {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and the flop brought {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}.

O'Dwyer checked to Negreanu who bet 174,000 and Cody folded. O'Dwyer called and the turn brought the {10-Hearts}. Both players checked and the river, the {6-Spades}, was checked as well.

Negreanu showed {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and took down this pot. A diamond on the turn or river would've made this hand a whole lot different as both Negreanu and O'Dwyer would've made a flush.
