Khan Runs Into Trouble

Hevad "Rain" Khan called a middle position player who bumped the pot preflop to 150, but after the small blind raised to 550, and the original raiser called, Khan reraised to 1450. The small blind moved all-in for 2950, as did the middle position for a remaining 3200. Khan had both players covered and made the call.

The small blind turned over {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, the middle position player showed {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, and Khan held {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}.

The board ran {10-Clubs}{A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Spades}{K-Hearts}, leaving Khan short stacked around 500 as the pocket fives held up.
