Blind on Blind

It's folded around to Bobby Firestone in the small blind who completes before Brett Kimes raises it up another 175,000.

Firestone calls so we see a flop {10-Clubs} {3-Spades} {6-Diamonds}.

Both players check so we head to the turn {Q-Spades}.

Firestone leads out for a 150,000 bet that Kimes raises up to 400,000. Firestone calls.

The river brings {2-Spades}. This would complete any flush draw and seems to scare both players as they check it down.

Firestone shows {Q-?} {J-?} but he's out-kicked by Kimes' {A-?} {Q-?} for the pot.
