Vrubel Survives, Peters Not So Lucky
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Viktor Jensen raised to 25,000 in early position, Shraga Vrubel moved all in for 152,000 in the big blind, and Jensen called.
Shraga Vrubel: 9♠9♣ 
Viktor Jensen: K♥Q♦
Vrubel was racing for his tournament life as the flop came 10♠6♥3♦, while the J♥ turn gave Jensen more outs with a straight draw. The J♣ river was safe for Vrubel, and he doubled up.
At the same time at another table, Tobias Peters moved all in for 73,000 from the hijack and Borja Urrea called in the cutoff.
Tobias Peters: A♠4♦
Borja Urrea: Q♥Q♦
Urrea had woken up with queens as Peters was left looking for an ace to survive, but none arrived on the K♠9♥8♥6♥3♦ board and he was sent to the rail.
