Diamonds Are a Short Stack's Best Friend

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Michael Sussman was getting frustrated as his stack was getting smaller and smaller. When we caught up with him he was all in with the {6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} against another players {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} giving Sussman a flush to boost his stack to around 27,000.
