I am watching a SnG (I think it's a satelite) that Hevad Kahn is playing in on P*. I have to say he is playing like a Donk and getting lucky as heck. Here is an example:

PokerStars Game #12605330432: Tournament #63971582, $670+$30 Hold'em No Limit - Level V (75/150) - 2007/10/13 - 14:46:58 (ET)
Table '63971582 1' 9-max Seat #1 is the button
Seat 1: Bajnok18 (2583 in chips)
Seat 4: slammedfire (2055 in chips)
Seat 6: RaiNKhAN (2680 in chips) (Hevad)
Seat 8: jeffreyjjj (4832 in chips)
Seat 9: Mr.smith12 (1350 in chips)
slammedfire: posts small blind 75
RaiNKhAN: posts big blind 150
*** HOLE CARDS ***
jeffreyjjj: folds

Bajnok18: raises 300 to 450
slammedfire: folds
RaiNKhAN: raises 900 to 1350
Bajnok18: raises 1233 to 2583 and is all-in
RaiNKhAN: calls 1233
*** FLOP *** [9s Qh 6h]
*** TURN *** [9s Qh 6h] [Tc]
*** RIVER *** [9s Qh 6h Tc] [7h]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
RaiNKhAN: shows [8s Qc] (a straight, Six to Ten)
Bajnok18: shows [As Ah] (a pair of Aces)
RaiNKhAN collected 5241 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 5241 | Rake 0
Board [9s Qh 6h Tc 7h]
Seat 1: Bajnok18 (button) showed [As Ah] and lost with a pair of Aces
Seat 4: slammedfire (small blind) folded before Flop
Seat 6: RaiNKhAN (big blind) showed [8s Qc] and won (5241) with a straight, Six to Ten
Seat 8: jeffreyjjj folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 9: Mr.smith12 folded before Flop (didn't bet)

I was watching him play in the WCOOP main event and he was being a bit reckless there too.

I've watched him, in satellites that I think he may be forced to play in, he just constantly screws around. In the $8.80+R tournament to the PCA, he went all in blind every hand for 45 minutes straight

The follow up to this is he came in third. The satelite awarded seats to the next round for the top 4 players.

That's just annoying. I'd pissed as H#ll if I was a his table

CO open raised

Khan put him on a steal and came over the top

Once CO pushes, Khan is priced in to call.

If he has played with CO before and knows that CO steals a lot in this spot, (which most people in the CO do raise a wide range of hands) this play is not horrible.

I don't hate the play. He put the guy on a steal and decided to try and resteal. After the push he's getting the right price to call so it's not that bad.

I agree with Scottwire and Littlebu. Very possible that he wasn't screwing around and that he was playing a read. Once the pot is re-re-raised he is definately priced in for a call.
