INSANE! Hu Hits Miracle Turn to Survive Bubble

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Anthony Hu

Anthony Hu, in middle position, and Justin Steinbrenner, on the button, got into a raising war preflop, where the former had his 157,000 stack in the middle and was at risk of stone bubbling the PCA Main Event.

The television crew began to swarm the table as well as the other players. After the hands were completed on the rest of the tables, the tournament director instructed the players to table their cards.

Anthony Hu: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Justin Steinbrenner: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Hu was a huge favorite to get the double up and leave Steinbrenner as a short stack. However, Steinbrenner made a set as the dealer fanned the {k-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop. A collective moan came from the room as Hu was on the verge of a huge beat.

"Not like this!" shouted Xuan Liu, in support of Hu, as she looked on.

The entire room then lost their minds as the {a-Clubs} came on the turn to give Hu the better set and Steinbrenner looked disgusted.

"A real TV hand," commented Hu, with a wry smile on his face.

The {6-Diamonds} completed the board and Hu somehow survived to get the double up.
