Comer Zigs Instead of Zags

Yevgeniy Timoshenko, fresh off his win last week at the APT Macau $5,000 buy-in event, opened the pot for 300. He was raised by Mark Griffiths in late position to 800. Only Michael Comer called the raise.

The flop came {8-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}, bringing a bet of 675 from Griffiths. Comer quickly raised 3,000 on top to a total of 3,675. His bet was called.

When the turn came {K-Hearts}, Griffiths led into Comer again, this time for 3,000. Comer raised all in for over 10,000, and Griffiths quickly called all in for less. Comer had {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}, but Griffiths had turned the nut flush with {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}. Comer had a few remaining outs, but missed them when the river came {5-Diamonds}. He is down to 6,000. Griffiths has doubled to over 20,000.
