Gyongy Finds an Ace Against Medina
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jesus Medina raised to 5,000 in the small blind and Andrei Gyongy three-bet to 19,000 in the big blind. Medina then reraised to 105,000, and Gyongy spent several minutes in the tank before calling for his last 97,000.
Andrei Gyongy: A♣J♥ 
Jesus Medina: K♣K♠
Medina got up on his knees atop his chair as his kings were poised to earn him the knockout. The 8♣4♥3♠ flop was safe, but Gyongy hit the A♠ on the turn to take the lead. The river was the Q♦ and Gyongy doubled up.
