Barry Gets Saved by the River
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Thomas Barry raised to 1,500 from middle position and was called by Justin Arnwine in the hijack. Then it folded to Joseph Renzi on the button, and three-bet to 5,200. Then Barry four-bet all in, which got a quick fold from Arnwine, and Renzi called for a total of 16,200, to put himself at risk.
Joseph Renzi: A♥K♠ 
Thomas Barry: A♠Q♦
Renzi had Barry dominated, but after the 10♠Q♠5♦ flop, it was Renzi now needing a king or jack to stay in the tournament. The 9♦ on the turn was no help, but the K♥ on the river gave Renzi a pair of kings, to secure the double up.
