Tamasauskas Survives on the River
Level 12
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Vladas Tamasauskas moved all in for 69,000 under the gun and Hugo Machado called on the button.
Vladas Tamasauskas: A♠J♦ 
Hugo Machado: A♣Q♦
Tamasauskas picked up a straight draw on the 9♦10♥8♥ flop, while the turn was the 5♣. The Q♣ river gave Machado top pair, but the same card also improved Tamasauskas to a straight and earned him a double up.
Allan Mello wasn't as fortunate and was recently eliminated at another table.
