van Leest Vanquishes One

Michael van Leest called a short-stacked player's preflop all-in with {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. His opponent showed {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

The flop came {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Spades}, and van Leest was behind. The turn was the {2-Diamonds}, but the river brought his needed {A-Spades} and his opponent was eliminated. van Leest is back up to 23,000.
