In a Frenzy of Bust-outs, Mintz Survives
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
After it was announced that players are in the money, all-ins have been quick and plentiful, creating a long line to the cashout desk.
One of the short stacks avoiding a trip there for the time being was Jeremy Mintz, who managed to get a lucky double-up.
Action started with a raise from the hijack, which was called by players in the cutoff and on the button. Mintz was in the small blind and went all in for 355,000 chips. The original raiser reshoved and cutoff and button folded.
Jeremy Mintz: A♥9♦
Hijack: J♦J♠
The flop came 4♥2♣2♠. The turn 3♥ gave Mintz a wheel-draw to go with his ace outs. The river 5♥ completed his wheel and he got the double-up.
