Unusual Dealer Error and Outdraw

Allen Le went all in for 20,000 or so from the button with {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts}, and got a perfect caller to help him double up in a gentleman holding {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}.

It seems the dealer dropped the deck in with the muck though -- he had to count out the muck cards to make sure that the right number of cards were in the muck as he separated them out.

Then the board: {3-Spades} {6-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {4-Spades}

A very unsatisfying turn of events for Le, who drops down to 72,000.
