Uselis Wheels Out Two
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Vladimir Malyarchuk tossed in his remaining 190,000 under the gun. Gediminas Uselis then rejammed for 915,000 on the button, after which Andreas Frohli called off his stack of 505,000 in the small blind.
Vladimir Malyarchuk: K♠K♣
Andreas Frohli: 5♥5♦
Gediminas Uselis: A♦9♦
Both Malyarchuk and Frohli flopped a set on K♦5♣2♠, needing Uselis to hit a runner-runner flush or straight if he wanted to scoop the pot. The 4♠ turn gave him a chance at doing so, and the 3♠ river completed the miracle.
He knocked out both players, who left the tournament area in disbelief.
