Svensson Tangles With Seabeast

We pick up the flop in a big pot brewing between Kristian Svensson and Jay Kinkade. The board shows {4-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {2-Hearts}, and Kinkade leads out with a bet of 2,500. Svensson bumps it up to 7,000, and Kinkade three-bets it up to 17,000. Svensson moves all in and Kinkade makes the call, having his man covered.

Showdown:
Svensson: {10-Clubs} {8-Spades}
Kinkade: {K-Hearts} {8-Hearts}

Kinkade has his man out-chipped and out-kicked, a bad situation for Svensson. The turn and river prove no help to the all-in player, coming {3-Diamonds} and {6-Clubs} respectively, and Svensson is out. Kinkade, on the other hand, is up near the top of the board, sitting with 80,000 in chips.
