Kenneth Hicks Busts in 22nd Place (17,000)

[user46392]

Aaron Gustavson made it 48,000 from the hijack, only for a wide-eyed Kenneth Hicks to shove from the small blind -- not the first time he'd done that today. Perhaps taking into account how shove-happy Hicks had been up until this point, Gustavson made a speculative call with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

but found Hicks well ahead with {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{5-Spades}

.

But oh, the cruelty of the poker gods.

Board: {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{9-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

{6-Hearts}

{6-Diamonds}

Gustavson counterfeited Hicks' pocket pair to send the still wide-eyed and staring Hicks to the rail.
