Kings into Aces

Patrice Poujad opened the pot with a raise from middle position, and Sven Eichelbaum stuck in a three-bet on the button. The initial amount was unclear, but the second raise added an additional 2,600 to the bet. Poujad then four-bet another 5,150, committing about half his remaining stack to the hand. Eichelbaum tanked for at least a minute or two before announcing an all in, and Poujad quickly called, confidently tabling {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}. But it was no good; Eichelbaum showed up {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}, poised for the knockout.

The board ran out {5-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {4-Clubs}, no help for the pocket kings. With a shake of the head and a handshake to his table mates, Poujad made his way toward the exit.
