Misaghian vs. Sylvia

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Just before the break, chip leader Maz Misaghian opened for 1,250 under the gun only to have 2012 WSOP runner-up Jesse Sylvia three-bet jam for 9,000 total from the small blind.

"I can afford to give you some chips," Misaghian explained before making the call.

Misaghian: {q-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Sylvia: {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Sylvia was ahead, but Misaghian was drawing to two live cards. The {6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop was no danger to Sylvia, and the {10-Hearts} turn actually paired him. All he needed to do was dodge a queen on the river to survive, and that's just what he did as the {K-Spades} blanked.
