The Croc Gets Cooked

Antoine Berube pushed all in from early position and Billy "The Croc" Argyros called for all his chips from the big blind.

Argyros: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Berube: {Q-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

When the flop fell {Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, Argyros was left looking for help that didn't come with either the {2-Diamonds} or the {4-Hearts}. After the hand, Berube's stack sat at 16,000.
