Do Heads to Collect His Dough

PLO

After a flop of {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}, David Lestock bet 25,000 and Quinn Do moved all in. Lestock called and their hands were revealed.

Do: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{3-Spades} (pair of aces)
Lestock: {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} (eight-high straight)

While Do's hand had been best before the flop, Lestock had flopped the nuts. The turn and river brought the {q-Diamonds} and {a-Hearts} which weren't enough to save Do and he was eliminated from the tournament.
