Hoang Gets Rivered to Bust
Level 20
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Keith Hoang pushed in his stack of 900,000 preflop and was looked up by Nadar Kakhmazov, who had him slightly covered.
Keith Hoang: Q♠Q♥
Nadar Kakhmazov: A♦J♥
Hoang seemed to be cruising to a double-up after the 4♣3♥9♠ flop and 6♣ turn, but the A♠ hit the river to upgrade Kakhmazov to a higher pair. Hoang was sent to the exit as Kakhmazov nearly doubled up.
