Tekel Survives
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Short-stacked Andrej Tekel shoved for 122,000 from the hijack and was put at risk by Spyridon Apartoglou in the cutoff.
Andrej Tekel: A♣7♠ 
Spyridon Apartoglou: K♣K♦
Tekel had outs but didn't find any on the 2♥3♣3♦ flop. However, the A♠ turn improved him to top pair and made him a huge favorite to double up. No king arrived on the 3♠ river, and Tekel survived.
