Cannuli Spikes an Eight on the River to Survive
Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Tom Cannuli got his stack of 177,000 all in preflop holding 
against the 
of his opponent. The dealer fanned the 
flop and the player paired his ace in the window to take control of the hand.
The turn 
was no help to Cannuli and would need only an eight on the river to stay alive.
The 
hit the river and Cannuli rocketed out of his chair in excitement as he spiked the two-outer to keep his WSOP Main Event hopes alive.
