Jakattack

Faraz Jaka opened to 5,500, and Charles Brizius moved all in for just under 40,000. Jaka tank-called, and was dominated.

Jaka: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Brizius: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The flop came down all diamonds {6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, giving Jaka a diamond flush draw. The turn was indeed a diamond - the {7-Diamonds} to be exact - and Brizius was drawing dead. The river was the {j-Diamonds} to give both players a flush, but Jaka's {q-Diamonds} played.

"Wow," Brizius sighed. "That's how you do it."

Jaka said nothing, rather he stacked his newfound chips and got ready for the next hand.
