Laak Takes a Walk

We're not quite sure how the betting action went, but we do know that Phil Laak ended up all in for his last 17,550 against one other player after a flop of {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs}. Laak's {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} was behind his opponent's {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. The turn and river brought the {2-Spades} and {4-Spades} which were of no help to Laak and he was eliminated.
