Dean Avoids Getting Aces Cracked

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A short-stacked opponent moved all-in and was called by Donovan Dean, who had a bigger stack.

Opponent: {k-}{q-}
Donovan Dean: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

The flop came {2-Hearts}{q-Spades}{k-Diamonds} to give the opponent a big lead with two pair ahead of the aces of Dean. But the suck-out was not meant to be as the board ran out {9-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} to improve Dean to a set and crush the opponent's hopes of doubling up.
