The Sultans of Downswing

Ludovic Sultan moved all in for his last 240,000 preflop with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} and Matthew Leecy made the call with {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} before Nahabedian Raffi moved all in for 500,000 holding {K-Spades}{K-Clubs} and Leecy again called.

No-one saw any help on the {5-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop or the {7-Clubs} turn but the {A-Hearts} on the river sent a huge pot to Leecy and put him into the chip lead as the other two players were eliminated.
