Sebesfi Survives...Just
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
David Sebesfi raised to 45,000 from under the gun, leaving himself 1,000 behind. Jarod Cunningham just called in the big blind.
"I'll take a random big blind range," said Sebesfi as the flop came 8♣6♥3♦. Cunningham slid out the 1,000 chip that put Sebesfi all in.
Sebesfi tanked with his hands over his face. Eventually the clock was called, with Sebesfi given only five seconds owing to the fact that he was virtually all in. He flicked his chip in and was all in.
David Sebesfi: K♣9♥ 
Jarod Cunningham: K♦3♥
"You lucky..." said Sebesfi, but his annoyance turned to joy as the 9♠ came on the turn. The river was the 6♠ and he survived but was still short with less than ten big blinds approaching the break.
