Vegas in His Element

Karim Vegas is hanging tough after taking a tough beat earlier. Preflop, he called an early-position raise from Steve Kolb to 6,000. Kolb made a continuation bet of 6,000 on a flop of {9-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, which Vegas called. Kolb again bet 6,000 when the turn came {4-Diamonds}, prompting Vegas to move all in for about 40,000. Kolb folded, increasing Vegas' stack to about 60,000.
