One Was Enough, Two is Just Plain Greedy

Josh Thomas and two other players see a raised flop of {Q-Spades} {A-Hearts} {7-Hearts}.

It's checked to a player in late position who bets 4,000. The other player in the hand folds before Thomas moves all-in and finds a caller.

Thomas tables {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} for middle pair and a flush draw to his opponent's {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} for middle set with the case queen coming on the flop.

The turn comes {3-Hearts} and river {9-Hearts} to make the flush for Thomas and propel him up to 52,000 while his opponent is heading out the door.
