Dwan Doubles on a Double Draw

Tom Dwan again got all his chips in the middle, this time on the flop against a single opponent. Prior to that, he had limped in from late position and then called a raise of 7,000 from a player in the cutoff.

The flop revealed {K-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {3-Spades}. Dwan bet 10,000 and then went all in for a total of 17,400 when he was put to the test by his opponent. He tabled a big draw: {4-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {J-Diamonds}. He was at risk against the cutoff's {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs}. Once more, the board smiled on Dwan. The {A-Spades} on the turn and the {9-Spades} on the river made him a flush, and doubled him back up to 50,000.
