Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Justin Boyle in the cutoff jammed for 64,600, and he was called by Larry Ryan on the button who only had 33,200.

Larry Ryan: A♣K♥ All in
Justin Boyle: K♠Q♥

On the Q♠9♥A♦, Ryan stood up as he thought he was going to be eliminated. "Oh, I only saw the queen," he said after he realized that he hit top pair.

The 9♠8♦ runout didn't change anything and Ryan doubled up.
