Tian's Roller Coaster Continues

Haiyan Tian has been up and down all day, and she has just hit another bump in the road shortly after the dinner break. A player in early position raised to 2,000, leaving himself just 2,000 more behind. Action folded all the way around to Tian in the small blind, and she made the call. The big blind folded, and the two saw a flop of {8-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{4-Spades}. Tian thought for about 20 seconds before putting her opponent all in, and he beat her into the pot. The cards were flipped, and Tian would need a ton of help.

Tian: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Tian would need an ace or runner runner straight, and she got no help on the turn, the {8-Spades}. The river brought the {9-Spades}, and Tian sent the double up over to her opponent, knocking her down to 12,000.
