Short Stacks Sucking Out

As we made out way through the tables we saw a couple of short stacks hit miracle turns and rivers to keep their tournament dreams alive as we near the conclusion of play for the evening, and perhaps most importantly, the money bubble.

On the first hand we had {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} up against {q-}{k-}. When the board ran out {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, the king-high straight came out ahead.

Not long afterwards, we saw {10-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} best {q-Clubs}{q-Spades} as the cards came {10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{a-Spades}.
