River Ace Saves Mendoza

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Action was on the turn with the board reading {9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. Romeo Mendoza bet 200,000. Andrew Kelsall raised him all in which sent Mendoza int the tank.

Mendoza looked uneasy and thought it over for a good while before eventually calling.

Mendoza saw the bad news as his {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} was behind the {q-Diamonds}{6-Spades} two pair of Kelsall, who could almost feel the ring around his finger.

But the river was the {a-Hearts} to save Mendoza who let out a celebratory "Yes!" as his 860,000 was doubled in dramatic fashion.
