Gonzalez Wheels Miraculous Double

Action folded to Fabrizio Gonzalez in the small blind who put in a raise. Richard Ashby called out of the big, and the board came {9-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{a-Hearts}. Both players checked.

The turn brought the {3-Hearts}, Gonzalez checked, Ashby bet, and Gonzalez tank-called all in. The hands were opened.

Ashby: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Gonzalez: {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades}

Ashby had a vicegrip on the high, but any low card would give Gonzalez half of the pot and he would scoop with a deuce. Miraculously, the {2-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give him the wheel and the entire pot! Gonzalez's rail jumped with excitement, while Ashby was left muttering under his breath.
