Level 14 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Lindsey McDougall shoved all in for around 20,000 chips and got a call from her opponent Matthew Salsberg.

Lindsey McDougall: Q♠6♠All in
Matthew Salsberg: A♣7♦

The 5♦5♥9♣ flop kept Salsberg in the lead, as did the 4♣ turn, but the Q♣ river turned thing around for McDougall as she hits a queen to keep her in the game. Salsberg lets out "are you kidding me" as he sees the river card, realizing he wasn't yet bagging into Day 2.
