Ma Left Short After Losing a Flip

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Zhi Ma committed roughly 10,000 chips against one opponent's preflop shove. Ma's call was four roughly half of his own stack, putting his opponent at risk.

Zhi Ma: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}

The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds} which was trouble for Ma, and the {5-Spades} on the turn left him drawing to only a chop. The river was the {K-Hearts} which changed nothing so Ma was forced to send over the chips, doubling up his opponent and leaving him with roughly 9,000 chips.
