Peters and Tran Play For it All

[user66118]

Level 20 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Four players paid T14,000 apiece to see a flop, and it came {9-Spades} {10-Clubs} {2-Spades} . First to act from the small blind, David Peters shoved all in for 160,000, and Kwinsee Tran wasted no time making the call with the covering stack. The other two players ducked out of the way, and Peters was drawing for his tournament life.

Showdown
Peters: {4-Spades} {5-Spades}
Tran: {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}

The turn {K-Clubs} was the wrong color black for Peters, looking for a spade to stay alive. He needed one that didn't pair the board, and the river {7-Spades} met those criteria nicely. Peters let out a roaring, "Yes!!!" when his card hit, the river saving his tournament life and doubling him up to about 375,000.
