Ramos Turns a One-Outer to Stay in the Tournament
Level 30
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Frederik Thiemer opened from early position to 500,000 and Luc Ramos shoved for 4,250,000 out of the small blind. Candido Cappiello made the call from the big blind and Thiemer folded.
Luc Ramos: J♥J♦ 
Candido Cappiello: A♠J♣
Ramos just had to avoid and ace, but the A♣Q♥K♥ flop put Cappiello in the lead with top pair. Ramos needed to find the only remaining jack to move in front or a ten to hit a straight and chop the pot. The one-outer J♠ on the turn was the perfect card for Ramos as he improved to a set. There was no ace or ten on the river as the dealer put out the 9♣, meaning Ramos had doubled up through Cappiello.
