Neto Survives a Runout Against Bruel
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Andrey Andreev opened to 4,500 from under the gun and Patrick Bruel called from the next seat. Nello Giongo Neto then shoved for 29,500 from the hijack, and when it got back to Andreev, he folded. Bruel didn't seem to want to fold and after around 10 seconds, he shrugged his shoulders and called.
Nello Giongo Neto: A♦K♥ 
Patrick Bruel: A♣J♠
Neto was well in the lead with his big slick, and remained in front through the 5♠9♣8♣ flop. A 2♣ on the turn did open up a lot more outs for Bruel as he picked up the nut flush draw, but the 6♠ river bricked out, which meant Neto doubled up.
