Laak Runs Good

I run good!
I run good!
A short stack moved in for his remaining 3,550 over the top of Phil Laak's initial raise and Laak made the call, turning up {Q-Spades} {10-Spades} to his opponent's {A-Spades} {K-Spades}. The flop was a devastating {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {10-Hearts}, making Laak trips. No help for our short stack on the {7-Diamonds} turn or the {4-Clubs} river and Laak claimed another victim, increasing his stack to just over 37,000.
