Goenka Uses One Time, Gets Lucky

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Christopher Back raised to 55,000 from under the gun, Manish Goenka three-bet shoved 202,000 on the button and Back snap-called.

Manish Goenka: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Christopher Back: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

"Wow!" Goenka laughed, seeing the dire situation he found himself in. Tablemates pointed out the jack and the five as possible escapes for Goenka, but the {K-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop gave him a different route to victory with a flush draw. The {K-Diamonds} on the turn didn't get him there.

"One time!" Goenka yelled and his wish got granted with the {3-Spades} on the river. He cheered audibly and Back, shaking his head, paid him off.
