Ouch

Danny Tang has just been dealt the kind of bad beat that stings for days after it happens. Holding aces, Tang had Matt Walker all in and in bad shape with {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}.

Roles were reversed after the flop, however, as it delivered not one, but two kings for Walker: {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {6-Spades}.

With one out left and two cards to come, Tang watched the turn and river spit out running fives, earning Walker the checkmark for the hand.

Afterwards, Tang was left with 17,000 in chips while Walker improved to 27,000.
