Michalak Stays Alive

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

Following a cutoff raise from Kenneth Hill to 14,000, Jakub Michalak jammed for 86,000. Hill made the call.

Jakub Michalak: A♥J♠ All in
Kenneth Hill: K♦J♥

"I put you on ace rag" said Hill once he saw that he was dominated, but his mood changed when he took the lead on the 8♠K♠3♦ flop. Lookong for an ace or a backdoor draw, Michalak got some help on the 10♦ turn, but no queen came on the river. Instead, it was the A♠ keeping him alive and in with a chance of making the money.
