Liffey Loses Big Then Doubles
Level 36
: 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
The board was down 
, and Brandon Sheils bet 65m from the big blind with around 40m in the middle already. Rory Laffey was on the button and went into thinking mode. After a minute passed, he called for two-thirds of his stack and mucked when Sheils tabled 
for a straight.
In the very next hand, Laffey moved all in for 28m from the cutoff, and Dean Hutchison called in the big blind.
Rory Liffey: 
Dean Hutchison: 
Board: 
Liffey paired his ten on the flop, but Hutchison hit top pair. The turn ace gave both players two pair, but Laffey was set to exit until the miracle ten on the river hit to give him a lifeline.
