Park Takes Another Hit

The action folded to Yoonjun Park who raised to 28,000 pre-flop before Albert Strickland shoved for another 80,000. The others got out of the way and Park made a crying call with {A-Spades}{5-Spades}, but found himself well behind Strickland's {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}.

Strickland kept his lead on the flop of {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, but the {J-Hearts} on the turn gave Park him a few more outs. Needing any ace or ten, the river was the useless {5-Hearts} and Strickland took the double-up.
