Malec Hits Two-Outer To Stay Alive
Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
Qingwen Guan opened to 1,800 and it was called by Roope Tarmi in the cutoff as well as the player in the small blind. Sebastian Malec, in the big blind, shoved for his last 19,000 and Guan let it go. Tarmi reshoved all in and the players tabled their cards after the small blind folded.
Sebastian Malec: 
Roope Tarmi: 
Malec was in desperate shape for a double-up but gained the lead on a 
flop, giving him a needed set of sevens. Tarmi didn't hit on the 
turn and 
river and Malec took down the pot.
