Walker Goes Down in Cruel Fashion
Niveau 8
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jason Walker has been riding a big stack all day, but his tournament just came to a sudden end on the river.
On a 
board, Walker bet 5,000 from the small blind and was called by the under-the-gun player. Sheldon Akiyama in middle position raised to 25,000, and Walker moved all-in for 36,000 total.
After the original caller quickly folded, Akiyama went into the tank for several minutes before putting in the chips to call. Walker turned over 
for two pair while Akiyama had 
for a pair of queens.
Akiyama needed help and got it when the 
fell on the river to give him a bigger two pair. The stacks were counted down, and when Akiyama was found to have Walker covered the one-time big stack made a quick walk to the exit.
