Chips help ease the tension...

Left almost for dead when he lost about 90% of his chips in a hand early on, Leo Fernandez just tripled up to lift his stack to around 15,000. An early position player moved in for around 6,000, the player two seats to his left called, and from the big blind Fernandez committed the last of his chips.

He held {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

to the original raiser's {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

and the caller's {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

. Fernandez managed to dodge the big cards that would doom him as the board ran out {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{3-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

to triple him back into contention.
