Le Causing a Stir

One chap who has suffered some bubble-time misfortune is Allen Le. Vivek Rajkumar went all in for 53,000 on the river of a {4-Spades} {7-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} board and Le called. Rajkumar turned over {5-Spades} {7-Spades} for a full house and Le mucked, leaving Rajkumar with 100,000 and Le with virtually nothing.

And indeed, a few hands later, Le busted out. Dan Stir raised with A-K and Le called all in for just 1,200. Amazingly, he'd found pocket queens, but he was still coin-flipping and coin-flipped his way out of the money when Stir hit the {4-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Spades} {K-Hearts} board.
