Chips for Chow

Michael Chow opened for 2,700 from the hijack seat and got one caller in Tarek Makki from one seat over. The flop came monotone — {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs} — and Chow fired another 3,200. Makki thought a beat, then called. When the turn brought the {J-Clubs}, Chow bet his last 13,800, and Makki considered for a while before calling once more.

Chow: {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}
Makki: {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Chow had the nut low locked up and a flush for the currently best high. Meanwhile Makki was hoping to see the board pair to give him half the pot. But the river brought the {4-Diamonds}, and Chow scooped.
