Gurney Gets Through

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Larry Gurney was the chip leader early on Day 2, having been one of the main beneficiaries from the rapid decline of start-of-day leader Rick Hensley. But he returned from the "dinner" break to a short stack, and just now found himself in the unenviable position of being all in for his last 29,000 against three opponents.

The trio all checked down the {2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{K-Clubs} board, then when everyone tabled their hands it turned out all four of them held an ace! But Gurney had the best one with his {A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, giving him the flush and preserving his tourney life for time being.
