Level 12
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Travell Thomas opened the action for 2,600, got a caller on the button and then short stack John Minjarez in the small blind went in the tank. He only had 3,200 more behind and he was potentially looking at a zero return on his buy-in if he lost.
Minjarez eventually made the call ad did the big blind so he was up against three players hoping to win the hand and the odds looked stacked against him.
The board ran out 
and it was checked to the river. Minjarez had 
and it held up giving him a quadruple up and a ticket to the money.
