Michaelo Doubles

With the board already reading {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, Dror Michaelo checked and Terrance Eischens bet 18,000. Michaelo then raised to 55,000 and Eischens thought for a bit before sliding out a stack of large denomination chips that easily had Michaelo's stack covered. Michaelo decided to call and the hands were revealed.

Michaelo: {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} (jack-high and a flush draw)
Eischens: {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} (straight-flush draw)

Both players held flush draws, Michaelo drawing to a jack-high flush but Eischen's having one-out to a straight flush as well drawing to a straight. The turn and river brought the {8-Spades} and {k-Spades} changing nothing and Michaelo's jack was good enough to win him the pot and doubling his stack up to around 585,000.
