Stitchling Stuffed

[user66118]

Brian Green opened the pot with a raise to 7,000 before Wayne Stitchling moved all in for 28,500 right behind him. When the table folded back to Green, a wry smirk crossed his face, and he was obviously eying up the pot odds that he was being given. They were good, right at two-to-one, and he made the call to put Stitchling at risk.

Showdown
Green: {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}
Stitchling: {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts}

The flop was a big sweat for the endangered Stitchling as it came out a flush-drawy {6-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {4-Spades} . The {10-Hearts} on fourth street was one of the safe red cards, but the river was not. The {2-Diamonds} peeled off the deck, improving Green to the winning flush and sending the Aussie Stitchling off to the rail.
