Milam Finds a Double

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

A player opened to 9,000 in middle position, and Kenny Milam shoved all in for 54,500 in the small blind. His neighbor in the big blind called, and the opener folded.

Milam: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Big blind: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The window card was the {j-Spades}, leaving Milam snapping his fingers in disgust. However, it was followed by the {2-Spades} and the {10-Spades} to give him a flush draw. He called for a spade and got one right away as the {a-Spades} fell on the turn. He sat back down, but there was still a sweat. If the board paired, Milam would be finished. However, another spade hit the river, the {3-Spades}, and he doubled up.
