Brian Taylor Hits His Draw to Eliminate David Johansson

A large pot developed between David Johansson in the small blind and Brian Taylor in middle position after a flop of {A-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} .

Both men had started the hand with over 300,000 and after a series of raises, Johansson was all in vs. Taylor.

Johansson: {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts}
Taylor: {7-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}

Johansson was currently ahead with top pair, top kicker and runner-runner heart flush possibilities, however Taylor had both a diamond flush drawn and an inside straight draw.

The board ran out {A-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} giving Taylor the pot with a flush. He eliminates Johansson and moves to 695,000.
