You Can Flop the Joint and Still Lose

On a flop of {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, Greg Raymer bet 2,500 from the small blind, John Juanda raised to 10,000, Raymer re-potted and Juanda called all in for less. Juanda turned up {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for top pair, a straight draw and the nut flush draw while Raymer tabled {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} for the flopped straight. The turn was the {4-Spades}, but the river was the {J-Diamonds}, making Juanda a royal flush! Juanda raked in the 39,000 pot while Raymer was left with only 11,000.
