Carr-Hill Runs Out of Gas

The player in the cutoff raised to 17,000 and the player on the button reraised to 33,000 before Joe Carr-Hill went all in for 89,000 from the small blind. The cutoff folded, but the button called, and they were on their backs.

Carr-Hill: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Button: a rather esoteric {j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Board: {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Oh dear. The button player's extremely speculative holding made a flush, and Carr-Hill was left with a payout slip and not much to do for the rest of the night.
