Sprung Moves in Blind
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Jonathan Sprung was down to his last 220,000 and moved all in under the gun without looking. Aleksejs Ponakovs called in middle position and the rest of the table folded.
Jonathan Sprung: 7♥4♠ 
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♣8♠
"I haven't looked. That one's live, and so is this one. I like live cards," Sprung said as he slowly turned over his cards one-by-one.
The 5♦4♦2♥ flop gave him a pair and the lead, but Ponakovs hit a straight on the 3♣ turn. "Six," Sprung called for as the 5♥ fell on the river.
Tablemate Rakan Abusaleh began celebrating before realizing the river was a five and not a six. "Sorry, I thought it was a six," Abusalem said to Sprung.
"It's all good," Sprung replied on his way to the payout desk.
