Hoyt Hits the Highway

With over 6,000 already in the pot on a board of {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}, the action was checked to Hoyt Corkins, who committed the last of his 1,900 chips into the middle with {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. However, his opponent in the small blind made the call holding {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}.

Corkins needed some help on the river, but it landed the {Q-Hearts} to send him to the exit.
