Manasyan Saved By the Dealer

Kai Cocklin

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Hayk Manasyan opened the cutoff to 20,000 and Avtandili Magradze shoved. Manasyan had around 180,000 in his stack and made the call which put him at risk.

Hayk Manasyan: A♥10♠ All in
Avtandili Magradze: A♦J♥

Magradze was in prime position to rake in a big pot and bring play to the direct bubble but the dealer had other ideas as the runout of [4c5d3ss7s6c] put a straight on board.

Magradze didn't seem to realize this as he let out a huge road in celebration, but soon quietened down when he read the board
