Amanda Musumeci was all in for her last 1.2 million or so with {A-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, but she was dominated by James Kinney's {A-Clubs}{k-Spades}.

"Nice hand..." said Musumeci, her words an offering to the poker gods in return for a miracle.

The flop of {3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs} left Musumeci drawing rather thin, but the {j-Spades} on the turn was her gin card. When no king came on the river ({7-Diamonds}), Musumeci moved to 2.7 million or so, while Kinney dropped down to the low stack with just under 1.8 million.
