Flush No Good Against Warren

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Kevin Warren raised to 4,200 from early position before the small blind moved all in for 20,000. The big blind folded which prompted the small blind to throw his hand towards the dealer. Apparently, he had not realized that there was a raise in front of him when he moved all in. The floor was called over and because his hand had not hit the muck yet, the cards were live and once the Warren had made the call, the hands were turned up.

Warren: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Warren was vocal about how he didn't necessarily want to play this out as he was worried about the Ace, but it was the wrong thing to be worried about. The flop came {7-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} which gave Warren a set but also gave his opponent a flush draw. The turn was a diamond, but the right one for Warren. When the dealer laid out the {k-Diamonds} turn it gave Warren quads and locked up the hand. The meaningless {2-Clubs} river was dealt and Warren chips up to 55,000 with that pot.
