Khan Ghengis'd! 2 years ago

Jerry Yang raises to $1.5 million from early position and the action folds around to Hevad Khan, who announces a re-raise from the small blind. Khan makes it $6 million total, effectively committing himself to the pot. Raymond Rahme gets out of the way in the big blind and Yang goes into the tank for a few minutes before flat-calling.

Khan moves all-in in the dark and the the flop comes Kc 4c 2d. Yang makes the call and shows pocket jacks to Khan’s As Qs, meaning RaiNKhAN will need an ace, a queen, or running straight cards to stay alive in this tournament. The turn is the 3c, giving Khan a draw to the wheel straight. The river card is the 3s and Khan has been eliminated in sixth place after another questionable all-in more that, this time, backfires.

For his time, Hevad Khan earns $956,243, while the remaining five players are all guaranteed at least $1.255 million for their efforts.

Kravchenko Doubles 2 years ago

Alex Kravchenko open-shoves all-in for $2.66 million from under the gun and the action folds around to Hevad Khan, who moves all-in over the top from the small blind. Ray Rahme folds out and Khan turns up pocket treys. Kravchencko has Ks Js and is racing for his tournament life.

Khan and friends call out for a three and the flop comes Q-J-9 with two diamonds, pairing Kravchenko’s jacks and giving him the lead. The turn card is the Ah, which does not help Khan, who is left drawing for the two remaining treys to send Kravchenko to the rail. The river card is the 4d and Kravchenko survives his all-in encounter to double through Hevad Khan and keep his bracelet dreams alive.
