Miracle Turn Saves Webber

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Rob Webber was down to 9,000 when he got his remaining chips in the middle preflop against a heads-up opponent. Webber had the best of it going in but that's not always how poker works out.

Rob Webber: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Opponent: {6-}{6-}

The tides quickly turned as the flop came down {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Webber's opponent flopped a set but a miracle {8-Spades} peeled off on the turn. After the {a-Clubs} improved both players to a full house on the river, Webber's was best and gave him the double up to stay alive
