Bazeley Bangs A One-Outer

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

We Missed the action ourselves but caught up a tablemate of Jacob Bazeley who recounted the action for us. Apparently, after a player opened for 5,200 from under-the-gun and another player called, Bazeley re-shoved for approximately 42,000 chips.

Only one of the initial bettors came along and that player showed down {Q-}{Q-}, which was in great shape against Bazeley's {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}. The player who filled us in on the action also let us know that he folded a jack, so Bazely was down to exactly one card in the deck for his tournament life.

The flop of {10-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} was extremely fortunate for Bazeley, as his miracle one-outer had been delivered. The turn and river didn't bring any help to his opponent and Bazeley found himself with the most unlikely of double-ups to remain healthy as we head down the home stretch of Day 2.
