Kabbaj Sent Packing in Horrific Fashion

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
John Kabbaj
John Kabbaj

With 600,000 in the pot on a turn board of {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, John Kabbaj checked in the big blind to Aden Salazar who bet the pot.

The bet had Kabbaj slightly covered and after a couple of minutes of consideration he chose to put his last 600,000 or so chips into the massive pot.

John Kabbaj: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Aden Salazar: {q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Kabbaj's pair of aces were the best hand, plus he had a flush draw and a gutshot straight draw to back him up, but then one of the very few cards in the deck that could save Salazar came on the river in the {q-Clubs}, giving Salazar trip queens to steal the pot and send Kabbaj to the payout desk in shock.
