Armbrust Pulls Another Rabbit Out of the Hat
Level 14
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
John Armbrust open-jammed for the last 365,000 and Masashi Oya in the cutoff asked for a count, then moved all-in over the top. All four players behind folded and they were off to the races.
John Armbrust: A?J?
Masashi Oya: 9?9?
The 7?5?2? flop was bad news for Armbrust as Oya had a spade in his hand. However, he managed to pull off a miracle escape thanks to the 3? turn and 4? river.
Oya didn't see the wheel and started to celebrate before it dawned on him, as his stack plummeted below three big blinds once more.
