Weissman Survives Again
Level 29
: 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Joey Weissman found himself all in again, this time for 705,000 under the gun. Chad Lipton raised to 1,600,000 from the small blind, which folded out John Racener on his left.
Joey Weissman: K♦9♦
Chad Lipton: 8♥8♦
The 6♦A♠J♦ was as good as Weissman could ask for without pairing, as he picked up a flush draw, as well as a whole lot of equity. He may not have hit his flush, but the 9♠K♥ runout gave him a backdoor two pair, which saw him stay alive.
