Bain Limp-Shoves
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
After Tristan Bain and a few other players limped in, Andrei Spataru raised to 6,500 from the big blind. Bain shoved for 30,000 and Spataru was the only caller.
Tristan Bain: 9♠9♥ 
Andrei Spataru: A♦K♦
A classic race would decide Bain's future in the tournament. The runout of 6♦Q♠3♥3♣Q♣ kept Bain's nines ahead, securing him the double-up.
