{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

, while Kia's {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

was behind but drawing live.

The flop added a few more outs for the all-in Kia, coming down {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{6-Diamonds}

{6-Spades}

. The turn was a timely {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

hit the river, he locked up the pot, increasing his stack twofold to 240,000. Hunter is back on 206,000.
