Korman Crippled, Then Sent Packing

Sam Korman moved his last 29,000 chips into the pot preflop holding {3-Clubs} {3-Hearts}, and was looked up by Andrew Rogers, who tabled {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}. The board ran out {8-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {2-Clubs}, failing to provide any help to Korman. Losing that pot crippled him all the way down to 3,200.

The next pot he entered, Korman held {A-?} {5-?} and was all in on the flop. Scott Peel had him crushed with {K-?} {K-?}, and Korman once again missed his outs. With those two pots, Korman is eliminated here early in Day 2.
