Hoosier Sent to the Bench

We missed how it went down preflop, but the important part is that Alex "AJKHoosier1" Kamberis got his last 140,000 into the middle preflop against Magnus Persson. Kamberis was at risk, but his {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs} had him poised to double through Persson's {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}.

The first four cards on board were safe for Kamberis ({Q-Hearts} {2-Spades} {6-Spades} {4-Diamonds}), but the river was cruel. The {K-Spades} fell, and Kamberis could not fade the two-outer. He sat there in stunned silence for just a moment, then gathered his things and headed for the exit.
