Taylor Survives Dramatic All In

Action opened when a short-stacked player moved all in from early position for 5,700. A middle position player flat called as did the player in the small blind. Brant Taylor then shipped all in over the top for roughly 40,000 more from the big blind. The first caller folded and the small blind called.

Taylor: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Small Blind: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Early Position: {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

The flop was {2-Spades}{Q-Spades}{3-Hearts} with the {10-Hearts} hitting the turn. This turn gave the small blind both heart and straight outs on top of her pair outs. Fortunately for Brant, the river was the {8-Spades} and his nines were able to hold as the best hand. He's currently sitting at about 95,000 while the early position player was eliminated and the small blind crippled.
