Counts Calls Down Dean For a Big Double
Level 22
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Preston Dean three-bet to 400,000 in the small blind and Joann Counts called in the cutoff.
Dean shoved on the Q♥5♦6♥ flop, and Counts took a minute before calling for her last 570,000.
Joann Counts: 8♣8♠ 
Preston Dean: A♠K♥
Counts needed her eights to hold up, and she dodged the 4♦ turn and 10♠ river as she clasped her hands in prayer and looked up to the sky to celebrate her double up.
