Hulme Takes the Wind Out of Kite
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Andrew Hulme shoved from the cutoff for 64,000 and Walan Kite called on the button.
Andrew Hulme: K♠J♠ 
Walan Kite: 10♣10♦
Hulme had to win a flip, and the flop of 3♠9♠Q♥ gave him a lot more outs to do so. The A♠ on the turn sealed the deal as Hulme improved to the nut flush, which left Kite drawing dead.
The 6♠ on the river was just a formality, and Hulme doubled up.
