Le Vaillant Valiantly Dodges Straight Flush

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Alexandre Le Vaillant was in a heads-up pot against Yevhenii Kuzmin and got his entire stock of 143,000 in the middle on a board of {3-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} before Kuzmin made the call.

Alexandre Le Vaillant: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Yevhenii Kuzmin: {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

Le Vaillant was far in front with a superior flush but didn't have a lock on the hand as Kuzmin still had an out to a straight flush. Kuzmin couldn't hit as the {j-Spades} bricked off on the river and Le Vaillant cheered and ran over to another table to tell his friends to good news.

"I thought you had pocket threes when you snapped," Le Vaillant told the opponent he left with a short stack.
