Scot Fahrenbruch shoved for 32,000 from the hijack before the button also jammed for more to put Fahrenbruch at risk.
Scot Fahrenbruch: A♠J♥
Opponent: A♦K♦
Fahrenbruch was in trouble against the better ace, but the flop gave him something for each player to root for as it came 9♥Q♥K♥ to give him a flush draw and his opponent top pair.
The 2♠ turn changed nothing, but Fahrenbruch found his card when the 5♥ river peeled to improve him to a flush and avoid elimination.
