Miracle River Saves Wantman
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Matthew Wantman raised to 95,000 with 2,000 behind from early position and Lance Hendricks called on the button.
On the J?3?2? flop, Wantman checked to Hendricks who bet the last 2,000 and Wantman called all-in.
Matthew Wantman: A?K? 
Lance Hendricks: A?J?
Wantman had the better ace but was outflopped by Hendricks. The 5? on the turn gave Wantman some chop outs but it was the K? on the river which gave Wantman the outright win as he survived at the expense of Hendricks.
