Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The action was caught as John Holley, in the cutoff, was all in and at risk for his effective stack of 200,000, against Shawn Rice, who was under the gun.

John Holley: A♠Q♦ All in
Shawn Rice: Q♦10♦

Holley was ahead and the Q♠K♣8♠ flop only confirmed this. However, the 10♥ turn gave Rice two pair to jump out in front.

In a dramatic turn of events, the dealer placed the J♦ on the river to give Holley a straight, saving his tournament life.

Shawn Rice	15,000 137,000	137,000
