Miracle River Saves Bernard

Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Alban Fourcin opened to 17,000 from under the gun before Jensen Bernard jammed his last 44,000 from middle position. Karim Benamrouche cold-called from the big blind before Fourcin rejammed as the slightly covering stack, which caused Benamrouche to reluctantly fold.
Jensen Bernard: A♥Q♥
Alban Fourcin: 10♦10♣
The K♠10♥3♥ flop was an interesting one as it gave Fourcin a set but gave Bernard a broadway draw and the nut flush draw. Nothing changed on the 8♣ turn until the miracle 9♣ peeled off on the river to give Bernard the nut flush as he survived.
