Jaka Finds Double Up

Level 20 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

With a {K-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} board exposed we found Faraz Jaka bet out 2,000. Jaka's opponent, Daniel Negreanu raised and made it 5,000. After a few moments of contemplation Jaka three-bet and Negreanu moved all in and was called. Jaka had less chips and was the one at risk.

Jaka: {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Negreanu: {Q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Jaka had flopped a flush, but wasn't out of the woods yet, any other diamond to land would steal the pot away from Jaka and into the pile of Negreanu's. A {10-Spades} on the turn and a {7-Hearts} on the river allowed for Jaka to maintain his lead and double up to around 70,000.
