Wilson Survives on the River
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
David Einhorn opened the button to 20,000 and Jorge Rodriguez Llorens flatted in the small blind. In the big blind, Charles Wilson squeezed his 171,000 stack into the middle. Einhorn quickly got out of the way but Rodriguez Llorens flicked in the call.
Charles Wilson: K♥Q♦
Jorge Rodriguez Llorens: A♥J♣
Wilson was behind but held live cards as the J♦10♦10♣ flop improved him to an open-ended straight draw. Nothing changed on the 3♣ turn, but the Q♠ landed on the river, pairing Wilson as he secured the full double.
