Peay Gets the Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Action was picked up on a flop reading 9♠J♠5♦. With 170,000 in the middle, Zachary Peay had gotten it in for his remaining 90,000. Darryll Fish was right there with him to put him at risk.
Zachary Peay: K♣Q♥J♦7♠ 
Darryll Fish: A♦K♠6♠6♣
Peay was ahead with top pair, but still had to fade the flush outs of Fish, as well as an ace or a six that would give his opponent the best hand. The 2♦4♣ runout meant that one pair was good by the river, and Peay lived to fight another hand.
