Diamonds Are Fitoussi's Best Friend

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
Bruno Fitoussi
Bruno Fitoussi

After Mikhail Korotkikh opened for 525, Bruno Fitoussi three-bet to 1,900 from the small blind. The player in the big called, as did Korotkikh, and three players took a flop of {j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}. Fitoussi was first to act and simply moved all in for 7,925. The big blind folded, and Korotkikh made a quick call.

Korotkikh: {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Fitoussi: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

Both players had flopped a flush draw, but of course Fitoussi's was best. The {9-Diamonds} turn completed said draws, and while Korotkikh was behind, he wasn't drawing dead as he picked up a straight flush draw. Fortunately for Fitoussi, it didn't come in as the {Q-Diamonds} peeled off on the river.
