Monteleone In Need of a Miracle

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Due to technical difficulties on the stream, the big double of Darius Neagoe through Aldo Monteleone was not shown. Right after, Zhiping Zeng raised to 200,000 with the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Monteleone called all in for 35,000 with {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Ran Shahar three-bet to 550,000 in the cutoff with {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}. Zeng folded and Monteleone had a flip.

The board came {9-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Spades}{q-Spades} and Monteleone jumped from one third of a big blind to almost three big blinds.
