[user22113]

There appears to be a mistake with the button, as it skipped seat 8. But we'll continue forward ...

Hand #25 - Gavin Smith has the button in seat 9, Savitsky moves all in under the gun for 40,000, Van Horn reraises to isolate, and everyone else folds. Van Horn shows {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{8-Spades}

, while Savitsky has {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

. Savitsky will need to improve to stay alive.

The flop comes {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Spades}

{5-Spades}

, and Van Horn retains the lead. The turn card is the {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

, and Savitsky needs a queen or a ten to survive.

The river card is the -- {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

! Savitsky spikes a higher pair on the river to double up in chips.
