Ville’s Back to the Wahl

John Hennigan completed, Ville Wahlbeck raised and Hennigan made the call. On fourth Wahlbeck bet and Hennigan called. Hennigan paired up on fifth and bet only for Wahlbeck to move all in. Hennigan made the call and the players turned up their hands.

Hennigan: {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs} / {10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{10-Spades}
Wahlbeck: {J-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} / {J-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Wahlbeck was ahead with a pair of jacks and both players bricked on sixth when Hennigan got the {K-Clubs} and Wahlbeck the {3-Spades}. On seventh however, Hennigan took the lead with the {K-Spades} giving him two pair, kings and 10s. Wahlbeck was down to four outs for his tournament life, two jacks and two 10s. He squeezed the card and it was the {J-Diamonds} to give him trips and keep him alive in the tournament!
