Bauer Drills River to Stave Off Elimination
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Erik Bauer shoved for his last 65,000 and was called by Joao Mestre to be put at risk.
Erik Bauer: A?10?
Joao Mestre: K?Q?
Bauer held the lead and kept it on the J?10?3? flop, but the Q? turn paired Mestre's queen and Bauer began to get up from his seat.
Fortunes quickly turned, however, as the K? river gave Bauer a Broadway straight for the double up.
"Vamos! Let's go!" Bauer celebrated as he collected the pot.
