Out Of The Red And Into The Black

Andy Black has doubled up after getting all his chips in with {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} on a {K-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} flop against {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}. The turn was the {3-Hearts} and the river was the {2-Spades} putting Black up to about 26,000.

However the end of the hand was stalled because of three blue 1k chips that were lying in the middle of the table. However it was eventually worked out who they belonged to and the gathering crowd around the table left, probably slightly disappointed.
