Rain on Khan's Parade

[user75032]

Hevad Khan eliminated

Two brutal hands quickly sent Hevad Khan to the rail. He was crippled first after making a hero call with ace-king. The pot was raised preflop and taken heads up. Khan opened the {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{9-Spades}

flop for 1,800, but his opponent quickly shoved all in over the top for about 8,500. Khan tanked and reasoned himself into a call with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Diamonds}

. It was a good one; his opponent showed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

. When the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

hit the turn, Khan was in great shape but he lost the hand when the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

hit the river.

That left Khan with about 3,000 chips, which he shoved all in from the small blind a few hands later. The big blind asked for a count before calling with {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

. Khan showed {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

and picked up a big flop, {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{J-Spades}

. Unfortunately for him it never got any better than that. The turn {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

and the river {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

sent him to dinner about a half-hour early.
