Lopez Wins a Blind-versus-Blind Clash
Level 24
: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Emmanuel Lopez was in the small blind, pushing all in when we arrived at the table. He had 1,115,000 total and Nipun Java had a few big blinds more. Java tanked for a bit and eventually made the call.
Lopez: 
Java: 
Lopez was slightly ahead but Java's outs were live. The 
flop, however, slimmed his chances to a gutter or running trips. He would be drawing dead on the turn, instead, as the 
gave Lopez a boat and the 
river made things official.
Java continued with fewer than five bigs and busted shortly afterwards.
