"Jesus" Finds Salvation on the River
Level 14
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
George Aldrich raised to 6,000 from middle position, and Ryan Scully, who affectionately called himself "Jesus" earlier in reference to his long hair, made the call from the cutoff. The small blind three-bet to 16,000, and only Scully called.
The small blind bet 15,000 on the 
flop, and Scully called.
The small blind checked the 
turn, and Scully bet 20,000, leaving himself 15,000 behind. The small blind check-raised all in and Scully called it off.
Ryan Scully: 
Opponent: 
Scully needed a jack to survive, and he let out a loud, "Yeahhhhh!" when the 
river saved his tournament life with a winning set of jacks.
