Budac Spikes the River to Survive
Level 40
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Jan Kohl moved all in from the button and Stepan Budac called for 11,200,000.
Stepan Budac: A♥3♠ 
Jan Kohl: Q♥8♥
Both players ran off to their respective rails to await the flop, which came K♦Q♦J♠ to give Kohl the lead with a pair of queens. The 4♣ turn left him a card away from the bracelet, but Budac spiked the 10♠ on the river to make a straight and double up.
