Unlikely Runout Saves Lavi

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

It started with a cutoff open to 1,100 and a call on the button. The small blind came along too, before Viktor Lavi three-bet all in for 4,575. The initial raiser folded, but it was a call from the button, and the small blind took a couple of minutes to think before passing.

Viktor Lavi: {a-Spades}{3-Spades}
Opponent: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Lavi was in bad shape as they went heads-up to the flop. It fell {4-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and only a runner-runner straight would be able to save Lavi's tournament life against his opponent's set of tens. The {5-Diamonds} turn was one card he needed, but there were still only four outs left in the deck to help him. The river did bring a {6-Hearts}, though, giving him the straight and netting him the chips.
