Clark Spikes the River to Stay Alive

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Action folded to a short-stacked Zach Clark on the button and he moved all in for roughly 12,000. Jeff Madsen folded the small blind, and then James Mackey called from the big.

Mackey: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Clark: {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Clark got it in good, but Mackey took the lead on the {9-Spades}{j-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop. The {4-Spades} turn meant Clark could only survive with an ace on the river, and that's exactly what came when the {A-Spades} rolled off the deck. Clark found new life while Mackey was knocked down to just 4,000.
