When Image Backfires

[user67765]

Vivek Rajkumar has been splashing around a lot lately, so it was natural that when he re-raised from the small blind following a late position raise, that the player in the big blind looked down at {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

and decided it was the best hand.

The big blind moved all in for 28,000, the late position player folded, but Rajkumar snap-called with his {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Diamonds}

.

However the board favored the brave, as it fell {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{4-Clubs}

{2-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

to give the BB player a pair of aces and the apologetic double up.

Rajkumar slips back to 75,000 chips.
