Salas Falls, Puente Survives

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Just moments after Damian Salas hit the rail after losing a flip, Jose Puente was on the ropes as well for 140,000. He was up against Keith Block and the two players were off to the races.

Jose Puente: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Keith Block: {a-}{q-}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and Puente's pocket jacks held on to secure him a double-up. Block was left with just 84,000 after the hand, which is under 10 big blinds.
