Tucker Spikes the River to Stay Alive

Bronson Tucker, who was one of the bigger stacks not long ago, had a reversal of fortune and was down to just 52,000 when he moved all in with {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} and was up against the {A-}{9-} of Kenny Milam. Bronson was in bad shape, and the {J-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop was not much help.

The {5-Hearts} turn gave him an opened-ended straight draw, and wouldn't you know it, the {2-Spades} river completed it. Tucker doubled on the hand while Milam lost about 20% of his chips.
