Rain Khan Wields His Chip Stack on the Button

During Hand #3, Hevad 'Rain' Khan raises to 12,000, the player on the button raises to 32,000, and Khan (with the second most chips in the room) asks, "How much do you have behind?" The player shows another 141,000, and Khan reraises another 100,000, making the total bet 132,000.

Khan's opponent gets all flustered, as if he knows he's being played at, but can't do anything about it. He flashes a middle pocket pair (eights? sevens?) before he folds, and Khan mucks his cards as he takes the pot.
