Hannah Loves AK a Little Too Much

Kevin Howe raised to 8,000, and James Hannah was the lone caller. Howe bet out 10,000 after the flop came {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}, and Hannah bumped it up to 30,000. Howe then moved all in for 122,800, and Hannah decided he had to call. Howe was miles ahead with {5-Hearts}{5-Spades} for flopped middle set, while Hannah's {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} was drawing mighty slim. The {q-Spades} turn gave Howe four jacks to sweat, but the river was the safe {8-Clubs}, doubling him to 265,000. After losing the huge pot, Hannah fell all the way back to 50,000.
