Le Gets Flushed

Level 3 : 75/150, 150 ante

A player opened under the gun with a raise to 400. Next to act, Nam Le called. Action folded around to the big blind where Bill Klein called.

The flop was {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and all three players checked to see the {3-Spades} on the turn. There, Klein checked. The original raiser bet 600 and only Le called.

The river was the {2-Diamonds} and the original raiser bet 2,000. Le thought for a bit, then raised, making it 4,650. The player tanked a bit, then called. Le showed {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for trip queens, but it was no good as his opponent held {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for a rivered flush.
