The River is Kind to Binger

Deciding it was time to push, Micheal Binger shoved all in preflop. Thomas Galusha looked him up with {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}, while Binger tabled {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}. The board brought a flop of {2-Clubs} {A-Spades} {4-Diamonds}. Still ahead Galusha saw the turn come {4-Diamonds}, and then watched Binger catch lightning in a bottle with the river {9-Diamonds}. Binger, who had been on a slide, moved his stack back up to 38,000. Galusha could only watch as his stack dwindle to 24,000 and the pot was pushed to Binger.
