Julku Saved by River Counterfeit
Level 8
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Juliaana Julku has doubled up in dramatic fashion with a crucial river card against Marc Foggin. Foggin had opened preflop, called by button Julku and small blind Brett Angell. On the 
flop, Angell checked, Foggin bet 3,000 and Julku alone made the call.
The turn: 
. Foggin led out for 5,500 and Julku moved all-in for 17,000 total, receiving a swift call.
Foggin: 
for a flopped two pair.
Julku: 
The river paired the board with the 
and Julku's tournament life was saved with that counterfeit of her opponent's two pair.
"I knew I was behind on the turn, but I had to," ruminated Julku as the dealer briefly attempted to award the pot to the losing Foggin.
