Torbey Saved by the River

Level 38 : 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

The preflop action on this hand was confirmed by dealer and players.

After Tam Nguyen raised to 4,200,000 from early position, action folded around to Amer Torbey, who, according to players, made an "accidental' re-raise to 7,000,000. With action back on Nyuyen he four-bet shoved all in, Torbey called and was all in and at risk for his tournament life.

Amer Torbey: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Tam Nguyen: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The flop came {4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, which paired the king for both players and meant that Torbey still needed to hit a ten. The {q-Spades} turn was of no help, but the {10-Hearts} river gave Torbey two pair and saved him from elimination.
