Billirakis Doubles through Adams

Stud

Steve Billirakis had just folded on sixth in a razz hand, leaving himself only 35,000. When the game switched to stud, he was all in on third with {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} / {k-Spades} against Brandon Adams' {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs} / {a-Hearts}. The boards fell:

Billirakis: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} / {k-Spades}{7-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} / (X)
Adams: {a-Hearts} / {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} / (X)

Billirakis was ahead until Adams peeled the {a-Clubs} on seventh to make top pair. Billirakis squeezed his last card and turned over the {6-Diamonds}, giving him a straight to stay alive. Billirakis is still short with 85,000, and now Adams is short as well with 95,000.
