Keon Sample Sent to the Rail

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

After finding {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} in the hole, Keon Sample made his stand and pushed all-in for his last 200,000 or so chips. The action folded around to Tam Truong in the big blind, who looked down and squeezed his cards, before instantly announcing a call. The speed with which he committed the chips signaled the strength of Truong's hand, and indeed he rolled over {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}.

When the flop came {6-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, the final streets were simply a formality, and Sample's hopes of becoming a WSOP-minted millionaire came to an abrupt end.
