Pinto Escapes Elimination
Level 11
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
A short-stacked John Pinto was already all in versus two players heading to the 
flop when a bet by Brandon Ageloff isolated to create the following showdown.
John Pinto: 
Brandon Ageloff: 
Ageloff had flopped bottom two pair while Pinto had top pair and a gutshot. The 
turn and 
river completed the board and Pinto rivered a set to stay in contention.
"Nice river," Ageloff said.
"I never hit the river, Pinto replied. Have to gamble with no chips."
