Sheirbon Slips Up

Facing a raise in front of him, Brent Sheirbon moved all in for about 360,000. His opponent called all in for 187,000, putting his own tournament life in jeopardy and giving Sheirbon a little rebate.

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

Sheirbon couldn't find any help on the board of {8-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {5-Clubs}. He's doubled up his opponent, losing about half of his stack in the process. He's back down to 177,000 at the moment, but still quite dangerous.
