Heads-up on board reading {9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, Harry Lodge cut out a bet large enough to cover Rafi Elharar's stack, which sent Elharar into the tank.

After a good while, Elharar called, and Lodge tabled his {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for a whole lot of nothing as Elharar proudly tabled {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for the win and a huge double up.
