Ma Can't Overcome Domination

Vivek Rajkumar opened to 1,050 before a short-stacked player in the cutoff moved all in for his last 2,650. Will Ma then decided to raise it up again, making it 4,400 from the big blind to force Rajkumar out of the pot.

Ma flipped {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} but found himself dominated by the {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} of his opponent.

It got worse for Ma, when the board was spread {K-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs} to give his opponent a pair of kings and the double up. Ma slips to 27,000.
