Hakim is Livin' the Dream

Jeff Hakim and Collin Cushman built a pot of about 45,000 heading to a flop of {4-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {9-Spades}. First to act, Hakim fired out a pot-sized bet. Cushman moved all in for about 100,000 total, and he was called very quickly to put his tournament life in jeopardy.

Showdown
Hakim: {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}
Cushman: {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}

The turn {J-Hearts} opened the door a crack, giving Cushman four outs to the gutshot and the double up, but a deuce on the river ushered him out the door and sent the pot over to Hakim. He's all the way up to 382,000 now, and challenging for the chip lead.
