Sagra Spikes the River to Survive
Level 15
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Ottomar Ladva raised to 32,000 in the cutoff, Ignacio Sagra moved all in for 162,000 on the button, and Ladva snap-called.
Ignacio Sagra: J♣J♠ 
Ottomar Ladva: K♦K♥
Sagra had run his jacks into Ladva's kings, and the start-of-day chip leader was at risk of elimination as the board came 10♥5♣4♥6♦. The river, though, brought the J♦ and Sagra spiked a set to earn the miraculous double up.
