"Hey, You Just Hit a One-Outer, I Had A-9 of Hearts!"

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action was picked up as Melissa Bartelme was all in against William Hawk, who had Bartelme covered.

Melissa Bartelme: A♠K♣
William Hawk: 9♠9♣

The flop came 8♠6♦2♣, and the K♥ on the turn put Bartelme into the lead. However, the 9♦ river completed Hawk's unlikely comeback, eliminating Bartelme from the tournament.

Hawk, who is legally blind and relies on help from his tablemates to read the board, was informed of the result after the river with, "Hey, you just hit a one-outer! I had A-9 of hearts!"
