"What Are the Odds"; Garza Ibarrola Goes Runner-Runner to Stun Ahmed
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Jacobo Garza Ibarrola was in middle position and got the rest of his 63,500 in the middle on a flop of K♠J♣9♠ as Owais Ahmed put him at risk in the hijack.
Jacobo Garza Ibarrola: A♣A♦5♣4♠2♥ 
Owais Ahmed: A♥K♣Q♥10♣2♠
Ahmed had flopped the nut straight to leave Garza Ibarrola in danger of elimination with just his aces as the turn came the J♦. The river was the A♠ and Garza Ibarrola spiked the last one in the deck to make a running full house and earn a miraculous double up.
"Oh my goodness. What are the odds?" tablemate Patrick Leonard yelled out as Garza Ibarrola snapped a photo of the board before taking in the chips.
