Makhija Eliminated

Amit Makhija raised to 375 and got a call from the next player to act and the big blind. The flop came {6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, and Makhija continuation bet 625. The next player to act raised to 1500, and the big blind folded. Makhija tanked for about a minute, before saying "well it looks like Pokernews will be here to catch my bustout," and put the rest of his 2500 in. His opponent called, and the cards were flipped up.

Makhija: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Makhija had an overpair, but had to fade an ace or a heart to double up. The turn came the {10-Diamonds}, but the river brought the {7-Hearts}, eliminating "amak316"
