Ham Saved By the River
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 3?6?J? and Dan Ham was all in for 45,800 with Eric Welch putting him at risk.
Dan Ham: A?A? 
Eric Welch: J?J?
Ham was on the brink of elimination with his pocket aces after Welch flopped a set of jacks. The turn was no help to Ham when the 8? hit the felt. But Ham's tournament life was saved when the A? came on the river to give him top set and double up against Welch's set of jacks.
