Sheikhan Can't Get Away

There was about 16,800 in the pot with a board reading {7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{8-Hearts} when Shawn Sheikhan bet 3,000. His sole opponent in Seat 10 then moved all in for 16,450.

Sheikhan didn't seem happy with the raise and went into the tank. After a couple minutes, Sheikhan asked, "What do you got?" He received no response and tanked for a couple more minutes. "I'm not used to laying down sets," he explained.

Sheikhan tanked for a little while longer before announcing, "Call." Seat 10 immediately flipped over {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for a straight and Sheikhan mucked in frustration. He is down to just 6,200.
