Hunter Gets Lucky

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ian Hunter
Ian Hunter

Conor Beresford opened to 18,000 from the hijack and received calls from the blinds, including Ian Hunter in the big blind. The flop was {5-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{4-Spades} and Beresford continued for 18,000. Hunter check-shoved 95,000 total and Beresford called it off.

Ian Hunter: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Conor Beresford: {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

Hunter was all but dead but caught a miracle {6-Clubs} on the turn to stay in the tournament. The meaningless river was the {10-Hearts} and the Brit doubled up.

"Ahh, I'm sorry mate, didn't wanna do it to you," Hunter apologetically said to Beresford while giving him a fistbump.

"No worries mate," Beresford responded to his countryman.

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The cards of Pasquale Sarracco were already rushed away and he had to pay off Jeff Hakim for 228,000, as he could not beat the {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} of Hakim on a board of {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.
