Blumstein Stays Alive on the River
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Scott Blumstein jammed all-in for the last 109,000 from an early position and was called by Ala Aqel in the small blind.
The A♦3♠ of Blumstein were up against 7♠7♥ and turned a wheel draw on Q♠9♥2♣4♣. Instead, it was the old-fashioned Barry Greenstein to the rescue on the A♥ river to keep the former Main Event champ in contention.
