Topakas Topples Over

Steve Topakas before elimination

Steve Topakas limped in only to have a button raise and a small blind shove follow me.

Topakas made the call for his last 3,300 and tournament life as the player on the button mucked.

Topakas: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}

Unfortunately for Topakas the flop fell down {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{3-Hearts} to virtually end his tournament, and following the {5-Clubs} and {7-Spades} on the turn and river, Topakas made his way to the rail.
