Stewart Hits River to Survive

Level 29 : 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Scott Stewart
Scott Stewart

Scott Stewart and Eoin Starr were all in preflop with the former at risk of being the final table bubble.

Scott Stewart: {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Eoin Starr: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

Stewart had one foot out of the door on the {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop but fouund some help on the {j-Spades} turn. Now with a straight draw as well as his overcards, Stewart seemed relaxed that his card would come. The {q-Spades} hit the river and gave him the best hand.
