Brikis Flops the Nuts

We missed the hand, but Josh Brikis was kind enough to give us the details on his recent double. According to him, an early-position player raised opened and action folded to him on the button. He promptly shipped for around 30,000, the blinds got out of the way, and the original raiser made the call.

Showdown
Brikis: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
EP Player: {K-}{Q-}

The {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop delivered the EP player a queen, but it also gave Brikis the but flush. Neither the turn nor river changed a thing, and Brikis received a double to nearly 80K.
