A truly monsterous draw!

When is a draw not a draw?  When you are flush over flushed of course!

CO: $50.00
BTN: $25.00
Hero (SB): $50.00 - 17/11 / 38% steal / 3.8% 3bet / 0.8AF / 71 hands
BB: $51.75
UTG: $36.35

MP1: $58.30 - 30/17 / 43% steal / 0% 3bet / 3.0AF / 71 hands
MP2: $39.95

Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is SB with 9d Qd
2 folds, MP1 raises to $1.50, 3 folds, Hero calls $1.25, 1 fold
This guy has been opening wide and from all positions.  I love Q9s, J9s -type hands.

Flop: ($3.50) Jd 9h Td (2 players)
Hero checks, MP1 bets $2, Hero raises to $6, MP1 calls $4
Could this flop be *ANY* better?  Open-ended, straight flush draw + bottom pair!  Maybe if I flop 9999 or QQQQ, but I'm not getting any action on those flops.  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE shove!

Turn: ($15.50) 6d (2 players)
Hero bets $10, MP1 raises to $20, Hero raises to $42.50 all in, MP1 calls $22.50

River: ($100.50) Qs (2 players - 1 is all in)

Final Pot: $100.50
Hero shows 9d Qd (a flush, Queen high)
MP1 shows Ad 8d (a flush, Ace high) - I was so in love with my hand I didn't even consider the possibility that a better flush could be out there.  Even with his 7 outter, I'm not drawing dead.  I have 2 outs to the straight flush.
MP1 wins $97.50
(Rake: $3.00)
