Flush Over Flush Sends Kanit to the Rail

We missed the elimination of Mustapha Kanit, but Stephen Chidwick was kind enough to fill us in on some details.

As he told it, Kanit opened and then called a three-bet from Yuri Dzivielevski. Kanit then called a bet on the flop, which contained a single diamond, and then bet after Dzivielevski checked the turn.

When the river put three diamonds on board, Dzivielevski checked and then called when Kanit moved all in. Kanit held the for a queen-high flush, but it was no good as Dzivielevski held the for the ace-high flush.
