Kanji Flushed Out

Jamil Kanji and Erik Audé were heads up with the board reading {9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

"How much you got?" Audé asked Kanji. "Am I allowed to ask that?"

Kanji moved his hands so that Audé could see his stack, then fired 6,000. Audé grabbed a handful of orange T5,000 chips, raising to what looked like 30,000, and Kanji moved all in. Audé called.

Audé{k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Kanji{q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Upon seeing Audé's hand, Kanji stood up and grabbed his backpack, throwing it over his shoulder, almost willing a third diamond to come. Indeed, the {5-Diamonds} spiked on the turn, and Kanji was already headed to the exit by the time the {7-Clubs} completed the board.

"Good luck, everyone," he muttered while leaving.

Audé happily stack his chips and announced that he had "like 120 [thousand]," but upon counting his stack, it's more like 105,000.
