The Diamonds Get Shchemelev

Four players took a monotone flop of {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. The first player checked and then Vladimir Shchemelev checked. The next player checked to the last player to act and he bet 750. Only Shchemelev made the call.

The turn brought the {3-Clubs} and Shchemelev check-called a bet of 1,750 from his opponent before the {A-Hearts} paired the board with bullets on the river. Shchemelev checked and his opponent bet 5,750. Shchemelev made the call, but mucked his two hole cards when his opponent tabled the {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a diamond flush. Shchemelev dropped to 38,000 in chips.
