Amarender Puri

Keven Stammen opens to 45,000 from middle position before Joe McKeehen three-bets next to act to 150,000. Action folds to Amarender Puri (pictured) in the small blind, and he moves all in for 215,000.

Stammen announces a fold, and when McKeehen puts in calling chips, Stammen flashes his X 8X 8.

McKeehen: Club 5Spade 5
Puri: Heart AHeart K

Puri was flipping for his tournament life, and the Club A in the window was the prettiest card he could see. Unfortunately the flop fills out Club AHeart 5Club Q to give McKeehen a set.

The Heart 2 on the turn gives Puri outs to a flush, but when the Club 9 completes the board on the river, he would be eliminated in 30th place.
