River Saves Moutinho

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

First to act from under the gun, Tri Huynh raised to 150,000 and it folded to Erika Moutinho on the button who made it 350,000 to go. The blinds stepped aside, and Huynh responded with a reraise to 2.15 million -- almost all of what Moutinho had left. She reraised her entire stack of 2.23 million, and Huynh called.

Huynh: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Moutinho: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}

The flop came {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Clubs}, providing Moutinho some outs for a straight to go along with her overcards. But the turn was the {5-Diamonds}, and the lone woman left in the field was down to her final card.

The dealer burned one and turned over the river -- the {A-Hearts}! Moutinho survived, and now has 4.62 million. Huynh, meanwhile, slips to 3.89 million.
