The Sun Sets in the West

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

A preflop raising war resulted in Jeffrey West getting his stack of approximately 500,000 all in against Christopher Shaw. As one might expect, it was a classic race situation.

West: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Shaw: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

West was the player at risk and the one that needed to improve. He didn't do it on the {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop, nor on the {4-Hearts} turn. West needed either an ace or king on the river to survive, but it wasn't meant to be as the {J-Diamonds} peeled off.
