Gonzales Holds To Double

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Matt Livingston limped from the small blind and Danny Gonzales announced he was all in. Livingston called.

Danny Gonzales: {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Matt Livingston: {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}

The two were in a coin flip situation with Gonzales at risk for his tournament life and Livingston on the other side of the coin looking for victory. The flop came {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{j-Clubs} to give Livingston four more outs to a gutshot plus three more outs at counterfeiting Gonzales' fours to a higher two pair. Gonzales was able to fade it all as the turn {7-Hearts} and river {6-Spades} fell in rapid succession, earning the double of his 209,000 in chips and reducing the deficit to less than four-to-one.
