Vuong Spikes the River to Stay Alive
Level 28
: Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
After an open from Rakan Abusaleh, Jonathan Vuong moved all in for around 1,300,000.
"Well, I don't like it, but here we go," Abusaleh said as he made the call to put Vuong at risk.
Jonathan Vuong: A♦10♠
Rakan Abusaleh: A♥Q♣
Vuong would need some help to stay alive, but the flop of Q♠J♠6♥ gave Abusaleh top pair.
"Oh man, no king, NO KING!" Abusaleh pleaded as Vuong did have a gutshot straight draw, and sure enough, the runout came 7♠K♦ to give him Broadway for the double.
"Nooooo!!" Abusaleh groaned and the table shook their heads.
