Borges in the Garden of Forking Paths

Diogo Borges had a difficult start to his Day 6. He made a wrong turn right away and found himself way down to 158,000. He kept moving, though, and soon decided to push all in from the cutoff with {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}.

It folded to Theo Jorgensen who called from the small blind with his {5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. The big blind folded, the board came {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, and Borges survived with 320,000. Jorgensen still has 2.75 million.
