Kahlmeyer Eighty-Sixed

Tim Kahlmeyer and Eric "basebaldy" Baldwin saw a heads-up flop bring {Q-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {3-Clubs}. Kahlmeyer was first to act, and he fired out a bet of 12,000. Baldwin raised to 29,000, and Kahlmeyer moved all in. Baldwin quickly called with a similar stack.

Showdown
Kahlmeyer: {8-Clubs} {6-Clubs}
Baldwin: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}

Baldwin had the overpair, but his opponent had a pair and a flush draw to work with. The turn was a raggy {2-Spades}, and the {7-Hearts} that completed the board was a safe blank as well. When the chips were counted down, both players had exactly 103,500 in front of them. That means Baldwin has doubled up and Kahlmeyer is officially down to the felt.
