Pettenger Stays Alive
Level 15
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Andrew Pettenger was down to his last 56,000 after losing a pot for more than 200,000 when his pocket queens got in against ace-jack on a jack-high flop and the player hit trip jacks on the river. He then open-jammed in early position and was looked up by the hijack.
Andrew Pettenger: 
Hijack: 
Pettenger looked to be cooked, but the flop 
bailed him out, giving him kings up that remained best through the turn 
and river 
to earn the double and get back to 135K.
