Bach Escapes From Elimination
Level 15
Badeucey
Prior to the final draw, David Bach was all-in for the last 12,000 with most of the chips already in the middle. He was up against Paul Volpe and both players tabled their cards.
David Bach: 8♠7♥5♣3♦
Paul Volpe: 7♦6♣5♠2♥
Volpe was ahead with the superior Badugi and peeled the A♣ as final card. Bach needed a king or better that wouldn't pair him up to survive and did so with the 6♦ as they chopped it up.
