Trojand Drills the River to Stay Afloat
Level 25
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Jeremy Trojand raised to 420,000 from early position and only Artur Vyborov called from the big blind.
Both players checked the Q♥5♣10♣ flop to see the 7♦ land on the turn. Vyborov bet enough ot put Trojand all in, and Trojand called for his stack of 790,000.
Jeremy Trojand: A♥K♦Q♠5♥ 
Artur Vyborov: A♠8♥7♠7♥
Trojand flopped two pair, but Vyborov had spiked a set on the turn to take a commanding lead. Trojand needed a jack or queen to survive.
The dealer burned a card, then produced the J♣ on the river to give Trojand Broadway, and he doubled through Vyborov.
