Temple Spikes River to Stay Alive
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
The under-the-gun player opened for 2,500 and sitting to his left was PokerNews's Brandon Temple who three-bet to 11,100 leaving himself with just 2,000 behind. Action folded around to the small blind player who four-bet all in and was called by Temple after the under-the-gun player folded.
Brandon Temple: 
Opponent: 
Temple was ahead with his made hand of tens and nothing changed after the 
flop.
The turn however, fell the 
leaving Temple drawing to two-outs at best with one card left to come.
Luckily for Temple, the dealer answered his prayer and dropped the 
on the river to give him the much needed double.
