Childs Stack Takes a Hit

Lee Childs opened to 12,000 from middle position and directly behind him, the player in the hijack seat pushed all in for his last 31,500. Action folded back around to Childs, who asked for a count and made the call.

Childs: {K-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}

The board ran out {K-Spades}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and left Childs' opponent with a king-high flush for the double.

Childs still has plenty of chips to work with, however, as he is sitting on 290,000 at the moment.
