Vanauken Can't Catch a Break

In Level 20 with blinds at 6,000/12,000 (1,500 ante), Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken raised all in for 57,907 from late position and action folded around to "Volstragg" who called from the big blind.

"Volstragg": {q-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken: {k-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Vanauken held the better hand but it was "Volstragg" who connected with the {6-Spades}{4-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} flop.

The {7-Clubs} wasn't the worst card for Vanauken as it gave him more outs with a gutshot straight draw and it also brought chop options if a five were to fall on the river.

Unfortunately for Vanauken, the {a-Hearts} completed the board on the river and ended his tournament.
