Fish Floundering

A player under the gun opened with a raise to 6,000. Next door, Darryll Fish reraised to 16,500 total, and the betting came back around the table. The initial raiser moved all in for a total bet of 43,200. After a quick pause for thought, Fish made the call with the bigger stack.

Showdown
Fish: {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}
Opponent: {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}

The board ran {9-Spades} {7-Clubs} {6-Spades} {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs}. Failing to improve, Fish sends a good chunk of his chips to his next-door neighbor. He's slipped back to 68,000, about half of his former self now.
