Velvelt Fades Asprogenous' Outs to Double
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Ermogenis Asprogenous raised from the cutoff before Urmo Velvelt three-bet shoved for 42,000 out of the big blinds. Asprogenous chose to call and the players went to a showdown.
Urmo Velvelt: 6♥6♣ 
Ermogenis Asprogenous: K♥Q♥
Velvelt had sent two players to the rail earlier in the day with pocket sixes, and now he needed them to win a flip versus Asprogenous' suited Broadway cards to stay alive.
The 9♠A♥7♥ flop gave Asprogenous some more outs in the form of a flush draw. A J♦ on the turn offered Asprogenous even more chances to win, but he missed them all on the 7♠ river, and Velvelt doubled up.
