"Sometimes You Get Lucky"

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Krasimir Yankov opened to 14,000 from early position and Weiran Pu three-bet jammed a stack of 70,000 from the cutoff. Istvan Fabian was down to a short stack and called for less from the big blind before Yankov folded.

Istvan Fabian: {5-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Weiran Pu: {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Fabian's exit looked imminent as the board came down {k-Hearts}{3-Spades}{7-Hearts}{q-Spades}, but the {2-Spades} then landed on the river to pair his deuce and keep him in the tournament.

"He was waiting for that hand all tournament!" laughed Marcello Del Grosso.

"Sometimes you get lucky," commented Matthew Hunt.
