"How Can I Lose That?"

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Action folded around to Thomas Brauner on the button and he opened for 4,000. A short-stacked Kai Herold then moved all in from the small blind, the big folded and Brauner made the call.

Herold: {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Brauner: {3-Hearts}{3-Clubs}

It was a flip, and while Brauner had a pair, the {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop actually made Herold the favorite with two overs and straight and flush draw. Surprisingly, neither the {Q-Hearts} turn nor {5-Clubs} river helped Herold.

"How can I lose that?" he bemoaned before gathering his things and exiting the tournament floor.
