Moments after Marvin Karlins goes out in 14th place, Ryan Sponaugle hits the rail in 13th.

Sponaugle is all in for 31k with pocket Kings, but Filipp Khavin flops an Ace with A4 to get the knockout.

“I’m not mad about the call,” says a mildly annoyed Sponaugle, “I’m mad that the Ace always has to hit.”

Sponaugle throws a “I hope you win,” to Khavin on his way to the cage. Both Sponaugle and Karlins earn $875.
