Miracle Escape for Pecheur
Level 23
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Earlier, David Pecheur chopped with pocket tens against two times ace-king when an eight-high straight hit the board. Then, he doubled up with ace-queen against king-queen and had 380,000.
After Abdullatif Attia had opened, Pecheur three-bet shoved from the big blind and Attia instantly called.
David Pecheur: 
Abdullatif Attia: 
It was all but over after the 
flop, leaving only backdoor miracles for Pecheur. The 
on the turn opened up a flush draw for the Frenchman, and the 
on the river completed the flush to give Pecheur a miraculous escape.
