Rodrigues Spikes the River to Survive on the Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Fabio Rodrigues was all in for 110,000 from the hijack, and the big blind Tamas Adamszki putting him at risk.
Fabio Rodrigues: A♠3♦
Tamas Adamszki: A♣Q♣
Rodrigues was dominated by Adamszki, but picked up extra outs in the form of a wheel draw after the 4♠2♦9♥ flop. However, he would only have those four outs after the Q♦ paired Adamszki on turn. But those four outs was all he would need when the 5♦ peeled off on the river, giving Rodrigues a wheel, doubling up, just three players from the money.
