Brooks Spikes the River to Bust Soika
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ambrose Brooks raised to 21,000 in the cutoff before Ihar Soika moved all in for 85,000 on the button. Brooks called to put Soika at risk.
Ihar Soika: K?Q? 
Ambrose Brooks: Q?6?
Soika had Brooks dominated and was poised for a double up as the A?Q?4? flop gave both players a pair of queens. Soika was still ahead with his king kicker and remained in the lead on the 3? turn, but the 8? river gave Brooks a flush and sent Soika to the rail.
