Nam Le

A player on the button limps in and then calls the 800 raise from Nam Le in the small blind. The flop comes {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

and Nam leads out for 800. The button reraises to 3,000 and Nam pushes all in. The button calls for an extra 3,800 and shows {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

for a naked seven high flush draw. Nam flips up {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Diamonds}

for top two pair.

The turn brings the {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

, giving the button the diamond flush. The river fails to bring Nam the ace or king he needs and he drops from 12,600 to 5,000.
