Bowker Mines for Diamonds

Before the flop, Thomas Joanides and Kyle "kwob20" Bowker were both all in for about 25,000 and 60,000 respectively. Christopher Bach was in the pot as well, and having both men covered, he was looking for the double knockout.

Showdown
Joanides: {7-Hearts} {7-Spades}
Bowker: {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
Bach: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}

The flop drew a big collective, "Oooh!" from the table as it came out {6-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} to give Bowker the flush draw. The {3-Diamonds} on the turn was the money card, locking up the pot and the knockout for Kyle. The {4-Hearts} filled out the board, ending Joanides' day and shooting Bowker up to 138,000.
