Bowl of Rice for the Unhappy Outdrawn
It folded around to Irving Rice on the button, who shoved for 123,000. The gentleman in the small blind promptly re-shoved for just a little more. The player in the big blind did that thing where you quickly move your finger up and down over your lips while you're humming and it makes a funny sound (open appeal - is there a word for that?) but ultimately folded. Rice and the small blind flipped their cards.

"Oh man, goddammit!" lamented Mr. Small Blind. Neither player had a diamond to make a flush, but Rice had rivered a three. Left with just a few thousand, the unlucky player exited a hand or two later. Rice meanwhile doubled to over 250,000.
