Topsy-Turvy Runout Sees Azim Double

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Hamza Azim and Tom Wheaton both got it all in preflop, with the former at risk.

Hamza Azim: K♣Q♣ All in
Tom Wheaton: A♠6♠

The A♣J♠3♠ flop saw Wheaton further his lead, as he picked up top pair alongside the nut flush draw. However, if Azim could've picked a turn card it probably would've been the 10♣ that fell, as he turned the world with Broadway and a Royal draw.

Wheaton still had outs to a flush, but the 7♥ that fell on the river didn't improve him, as Azim lived to fight another day.

On another table, Cherish Andrews couldn't do the same, as her tournament came to an end.
