Santos Survives the Flip
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Following the previous hand, David Santos was left short stacked and soon found himself all-in on the very next orbit. An open to 1,200 came from the hijack and the Portuguese player moved all-in from the big blind for 9,300. His opponent made the call.
David Santos: J♦J♣ 
Hijack: A♠Q♥
Santos received immediate help as the flop came 4♠J♠10♦, giving him a set. His opponent still had four outs with any king to make a straight, but neither the 7♠ turn nor the Q♣ river provided it.
Santos secured the double up and climbed back above the 20,000 chip mark.
