Tehan Taken Out

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

We caught the action with Joe Tehan risking the last 1500 of his chips in the pot. He already had one caller, and another opponent was tanking. The third player ended up folding, and Tehan was all in and heads up.

Tehan: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The flop was not a pretty site for Tehan, as it came {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades}. Tehan would need runner runner to survive. He didn't get it, as the rest of the board came out {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, making his opponent an unnecessary flush. Tehan got out of his seat and headed for the rail.
