Shankman's Ace Holds For a Knockout

Level 3 : Blinds 300/600, 0 ante

With around 5,000 in the pot on a flop of A94, a player in the cutoff moved all in for 6,500 and Dave Shankman called in the small blind.

All-In Player: K10 All in
Dave Shankman: AQ

"I need a club," the at-risk player said even before the cards were revealed, but he received no help on the 2 turn and 3 river as Shankman scored the knockout.
