Chang Runs Out of Lives

Matthew Chang has been grinding a short stack for what seems like the last six hours, surviving one all in bet after the other. However, it finally caught up to him, and he lost a race for his tournament life.

Action folded all the way around to the small blind, who open shipped all in on Chang. Chang looked down at his cards, thought for just a few seconds, and called.

Chang: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Opponent: {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Chang's opponent was happy to see that it was a race situation, and he was ecstatic when the flop came down {8-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. The {4-Hearts} on the turn was a great card for Chang, as it gave him flush and straight outs. However, the {4-Spades} hit the river, and Chang was sent to the rail.
