Lehavot Rivered, Crippled

Amir Lehavot and Moritz Kranich each got a million chips into the pot preflop, and it was the classic queens-versus-ace-king race. It was Lehavot in the lead with {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}, and Kranich was trying to get there with {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}. He was all in for 938,000 after the initial raises were pulled in, and Lehavot had him covered by just 117,000.

The {5-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Hearts} flop was a swing and a miss for Kranich, as was the {10-Clubs} turn. He caught lightning in a bottle on the river, though, as the dealer gave him the {K-Spades} for the double. He appears to be up over 2 million.

It's a crushing blow to Lehavot. He didn't say a word, but you could see the disappointment in his whole body. He lowered his head and tried to shake it off, staring longingly at the few chips he has left.
