Two Away From Money
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
On the soft bubble, Renji Mao open ripped his stack of 110,000. Small blind Zachary Grech then ripped, covering Ryutaro Suzuki in the big blind. Suzuki then tanked for over four minutes, before folding Q♣Q♥ face up.
Renji Mao: A♥J♦ 
Zachary Grech: 9♣9♦
The dealer had evil intentions, putting out 8♣Q♠9♥ on the flop, giving Grech a set, and Mao a straight draw. Suzuki looked sick as the board ran out 5♠5♦ as he would've had top boat. Either way, Mao was heading home just before cashing.
