McCool Spikes Two-Outer to Stay Alive

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

The Pavilion Room is slowly clearing out here at the Casino Employee's event. We have around 135 players left. After a player in middle position opened the pot with a 3,050 raise, Frank McCool from Mississippi re-raised all in for 12,875. The middle position player called and flipped over {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}. McCool showed {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

The flop showed up {2-Spades}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades}, and the turn brought the {q-Hearts} to put McCool's opponent ahead. He began to get up and said "Nice catch, sir" but just as he was about to leave he spiked the {10-Diamonds} on the river and now sits with around 34,000.
