Suck and Re-Suck Keeps Madsen Alive
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Jeff Madsen completed in the small blind and Joel Micka raised to 600,000 in the big blind.
Madsen checked on the flop of 10♠8♠J♥ and Micka continued for 900,000. Madsen moved all in for 2,125,000 and Micka called.
Jeff Madsen: 10♥8♥ 
Joel Micka: A♠Q♣
Madsen was ahead with two pair but the K♣ turn gave Micka a big lead with Broadway. However, the 8♦ river paired the board as Madsen received a lucky double to stay in contention.
Madsen ran to the rail and celebrated with a drink from Kyna England's wine glass.
