Van Sanford Survives

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

After a Brian Hastings open to 2,800 and a Ben Keeline call, Ryan Van Sanford shoved all in from the button for about 25,000. Mike Aron reshoved in the big blind for 19,300, and Van Sanford called after the others folded.

Van Sanford: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Aron: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Van Sanford pointed to his queen but he had a lot more cards to root for after {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flopped to give him a flush draw. The {10-Diamonds} turn and {2-Diamonds} river gave both players ace-high for a chop.
