Miracle River Saves Piso

Ankush Mandavia had raised under the gun to 16,000 after which Leon Piso moved all in from the button. Both blinds folded, and Mandavia made the call.

Ankush Mandavia{J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Leon Piso{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

The board ran out {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}{9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}.....{8-Hearts}, and Piso survived. The Dutchman made his apologies, but he was more than happy with his double up. Mandavia was left behind short, and now he's looking for some help.
