Kabbaj's Draw Comes Home

With 10,000 in chips in the pot and on a flop of {2-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, John Kabbaj tangled with a shorter-stacked player whose last 12,000 went into the middle. Kabbaj was drawing with {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}; his opponent's ace-high {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} was the leading hand. Neither player improved with the {j-Hearts} turn, but Kabbaj it a club on the river, {j-Clubs}, to make a flush, take down the pot, and eliminate his opponent.
