Zanot What He Wanted to See
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Donavan Roussell's stack was being blinded out for just under two hours before he finally showed up, much to the disappointment of his tablemates, he quickly got in the mix. Cards were on their backs and Roussell was at risk against Thomas Zanot's commanding stack.
Donavan Roussell: A♣4♦3♦3♣ 
Thomas Zanot: K♠K♦J♣9♦
Roussel was pleased to see the 3♥10♥6♥ roll off the deck, putting him firmly in the lead with a set of treys. The turn bricked the 2♦ and the A♠ river sealed the deal.
The table quickly chirped up that it would be quite the story if Roussell spun his stack up to a final table appearance.
"Now, I'm tilted!" said Thomas Zanot, after carving out half his stack to Roussell.
