Level 17
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
On the first hand of the day, Aaron Massey was in the small blind with a dead big blind, since Patrick Eskandar hadn't arrived yet.
Sam Phillips opened in late position to 13,000 and Massey shoved all in. Phillips got a count and was happy with the rough estimate Massey gave him. Phillips called 71,500.
Massey had

and Massey was able to dodge the flush draw and earn the double up.
"This is exhilarating, I've been waiting three days to double up."
