Evans' Miracle Ace
On a board of 
, Joshua Evans led out for 137,000. Bret Hruby decided to raise the action, making it 274,000 to go. Evans announced a three-bet and Hruby instantly announced that he was all in. Evans snap called only to learn he was behind.
Evans: 
Hruby: 
Hruby's set of nines was far out in the lead, but didn't stay there for long, as Evans was able to catch the 
on the turn, giving him a higher set. The river came 
and cries of "Are you serious?" could be heard from the rail.
A disappointed Hrbuy shipped a majority of his stack over to Evans, who is now our commanding chip leader.
