Hicks with a Barry Greenstein Special to Stay in the Main Event

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Eric Hicks opened from early position and Robin Hegele three-bet from the blinds enough to put Hicks all in. He called and the cards were turned over.

Robin Hegele: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Eric Hicks: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}

The flop {7-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds} gave Hegele a set of jacks and pushed Hicks towards the exit with the bubble looming. The turn was the {3-Spades} but the river {a-Spades} wrenched Hicks back from the edge of disaster and double up his 97,000 stack.
