Bouya To The River

Phillip Willcocks opened the pot with a min-raise from under the gun and the action folded around to Steve Bouya in the cutoff, whereby he shoved his 605,000 chip stack into the middle. With Willcocks making the call it would be a Bouya tournament life on the line for the second time in three hands.

Willcocks: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Bouya: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

By the time the board had ran out {q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}, Bouya would need any ten, king or ace to survive.

The {a-Clubs} on the river was all that Bouya was looking for as he took the down the pot and the big double-up to thrive with a healthy 1,250,000.
