Oh, Mann!

Action folded to Jason Mann in the cutoff and he open-shipped for 240,000. The button got out of the way, but Tommy Vedes made the call from the small blind, putting most of his stack at risk in the process.

Showdown
Mann: {A-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Vedes: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

It was a classic race, but according to our PokerNews Odds Calculator, Vedes has a 55.7% chance of winning the hand.

The {7-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop actually delivered Mann an open-ended straight to go with his overs, but because Vedes killed two of his outs his odds of winning were just 32.83%. That dropped even further to 20.45% on the {4-Diamonds} turn, while the {7-Diamonds} river put an end to Mann's deep run.
