Mann Stays Alive
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Action folded to Joan Bousman in the hijack, and limped in, as did a player on the button. When it folded to the big blind Howard Mann, he raised all in for 7,000. Bousman called, and the button folded, leaving the two players heads up, with Mann at risk.
Howard Mann: A♠Q♥ 
Joan Bousman: 4♦3♦
Mann was ahead with his ace high, and when the board ran out 7♦8♦8♥8♠2♥ his ace high was still best and secured the double up.
