Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Tan Hoang shoved all in from the button and received action by Jay McVeigh in the small blind.

Tan Hoang: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Jay McVeigh: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Hoang was in trouble for his tournament life as the flop came {3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Tournament Director Jeremy Smith announced that Hoang would need to hit running cards to stay alive in the tournament. Hoang, despite standing up with his backpack on, was given a sweat as the turn fell {7-Clubs}. Though he was open-ended, any jack would give McVeigh a full house and thus would still spell doom. The river came {6-Spades}, giving Hoang the four outer to double and stay alive in the tournament.
