The 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event was a very short-lived experience for high stakes player Vivek Rajkumar. Rajkumar, who played in the Big One for One Drop in 2012, managed to cash in the Main Event in the last two years but he wasn't as fortunate this year.
The players at his former table explained to us how Rajkumar lost most of his chips with a queen-high flush versus an opponent's ace-high flush. On the next hand, Rajkumar - who had just 1,800 chips remaining - was knocked out.
In total Rajkumar, who's no longer a regular on the tournament circuit, has $4.3 million in career earnings. His biggest result was a WPT victory in 2008 when he took home $1.4 million.
