Agnelli Survives Again on the River

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Andy Spears raised to 65,000 and called a shove for 250,000 from Donis Agnelli in the blinds.

Agnelli: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Spears: {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

Agnelli had Spears dominated, but the latter applied some reverse domination on the {3-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{J-Hearts} flop. The {2-Hearts} turn left Agnelli drawing to the aces and queens to survive. The river brought the {Q-Hearts}, and the Venezuelan once again escaped elimination on the river.

"Vamos! Vamos!" his ecstatic rail cheered. "Mesa final!"
