A Double Mascardi

The action was on Eddie Mascardi in late position when he shipped his remaining 50,000 in the middle and received a call from Fabian Craib in the small blind.

Craib: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Mascardi: {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}

The {5-Clubs}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs} would devestate Mascardi who was looking like heading towards the rail and with no help on the {5-Diamonds} turn, it was all but over.

The {a-Hearts} on the river would save Mascardi's life as he raked in the pot and Craib became one of the shorter stacks in the room.
