Tilston Doubles on Rivered Two-Outer
Level 10
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
From the hijack, Doug Polk opened to 27,000 and Keith Tilston moved all in from the button for his final 205,000. The blinds folded and Polk immediately called.
Polk: 
Tilston: 
The 
flop thrust Polk into the lead and, when the 
arrived on the turn, Tilston would need to spike one of the final two nines in the deck to stay alive.
The dealer burned and turned the 
on the river to see Tilston strike gold with his two-outer to stay alive in this tournament with over 440,000 in chips as Polk dropped to 1.5 million.
