O'Kearney Hits the Rail

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Dara O'Kearney
Dara O'Kearney

Dara O'Kearney moved all in for approximately 170,000 from the cutoff and was called by Larry Quang on the button who had slightly less.

Larry Quang: 3?3?
Dara O'Kearney: J?9?

The board ran out 2?6?3?J?10?. Quang's set of threes was good for a full double up while Dara O'Kearney was left on fumes.

A few hands later O'Kearney went all in from early position for approximately 50,000 and was called by Faizal Khoja in late position to put O'Kearney at risk.

Faizal Khoja: A?9?
Dara O'Kearney: Q?J?

The board ran out 10?4?6?J?10?. O'Kearney's two pair could not beat Khoja's ace-high flush and he was sent to the rail shortly after the money bubble burst.
