Live! Classic Main (Day 2): Faro First Gone

Level 10 (Blinds 500/1,000/100)
Players Remaining: 50 
Chip Average: 65,500

Russel Thomas opened the pot for 2,000 and Rafael Sa'adah flatted behind.  Tim Faro then three-bet shoved for just over 17,000, and Thomas flatted.  Sa'adah would fold after some brief thought, and the two hands would be tabled:

Faro: A K         Thomas: K K

Flop: 4 Q K

Turn: 5 

River: 4

Faro would find himself in even worse shape after the flop then he was going in, and would need to go runner straight to win the hand.  The turn would have him drawing dead and Faro would be the first player to leave the tournament area today.
