Lucky Chewy Gets Unlucky

Andrew Lichtenberger called a preflop all in from a short-stacked opponent.

Lichtenberger: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}
Opponent: {10-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

The board ran {J-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {8-Hearts} and the opponent made a straight and lightened Lichtenberger's stack by about 30,000.
