Allain Catches Lucky Turn and Dodges Bullets For Double Up
Level 12
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
There was two-way action after the flop with around 20,000 in the middle and a board showing 
.
Adrien Allain jammed his remaining 63,500 in the middle from late position and Marko Maher snapped him from the button.
Marko Maher: 
Adrien Allain: 
Allain was open-ended but Maher held top pair and kicker with the nut flush and broadway draw. As an 81 percent favorite to win the hand, Maher was looking golden until the dealer peeled off the 
on the turn giving Allain a the nut straight.
Maher still had outs but was unable to hit as the river fell a brick with the 
and Allain came away with a double.
