Von Kriegenbergh Felted Via Cracked Aces

In what would be Taylor von Kriegenbergh's last hand of the tournament, Von Kreigenbergh min-raised from the button and was three-bet by his opponent in the small blind. The player in the big then four-bet and action was back on Von Kreigehbergh - who pushed all in for about 100,000 total. The three-bettor folded, however, the four-bettor called to put Von Kreigenbergh at risk.

Von Kreigenbergh: {A-}{A-}
Opponent: {K-}{Q-}

Von Kreigenbergh was in excellent shape to scoop the massive pot, however the {J-}{10-}{9-} flop left Von Kreigenbergh's opponent with a straight for a commanding lead. The turn and river provided no miracle for Von Kriegenbergh and he was eliminated.
