Viswanathan Binks, Flirts With 2MM

Manoj Viswanathan and Patrick Shepherd were heads-up with the board reading {3-Hearts}{7-Spades}{5-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. Viswanathan fired 150,000, Shepherd moved all in for 398,000, and Viswanathan made the call.

Viswanathan: {7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Shepherd: {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Viswanathan needed a seven or a six to win the hand, and miraculously the {6-Spades} spiked on the river to give Viswanathan a straight! Shepherd hit the rail, while Viswanathan now flirts with 2 million chips.
