Nice Run Out for Ormson
Level 19
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
A short-stacked Larry Ormson moved all in for his last 57,000 only to have Paul Vivacqua three-bet all in over the top from the hijack. The rest of the players folded and Ormson discovered the bad news.
Ormson: 
Vivacqua: 
Ormson was pipped, and he stood in preparation to make his exit. The 
flop gave Ormson an open-ended straight draw, but he must not have seen it. We say that because after the

appeared on the river to give Ormson the said straight. He began to take off his glasses, put them in his pocket, and removed his headphones. A solid 30 seconds passed before Ormson realized he won, and he lit up like a Christmas tree with new life.
