Wallace Spikes the River to Stay In It
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with LaShun Wallace all in for 33,500 and Steven McKuin putting him at risk. The board showed 4♦K♠9♦ and roughly 6,900 in the pot before the flop.
LaShun Wallace: A♦10♦
Steven McKuin: K♣9♣
McKuin flopped best with his top two pair but would need to fade Wallace's flush draw to score a knockout. McKuin was still in front after the 10♠ on the turn, but it added five more outs for Wallace. Those outs werent needed though, as the river brought the 6♦ to give Wallace the flush, and the double up.
