Lipton Smacks the River to Stop the Rodriguez Train

Level 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Chad Lipton

When it folded to Juan Rodriguez in the small blind, he raised to 1,100,000 and Chad Lipton jammed for 5,300,000 from the big blind. Rodriguez snap-called.

Chad Lipton: A3 All in
Juan Rodriguez: QQ

Lipton was in bad shape, and Rodriguez had the chance to record his third elimination of the day.

The dealer fanned the 248 flop and Rodriguez said to Lipton, "That's about as good of a flop as you could hope for, Chad."

Lipton didn't flinch and simply stared at the spot where the turn card would land.

The dealer put out the 2 turn, and Rodriguez shouted to his rail, "We're gonna hold, we're gonna hold!"

However, the river had other ideas as the A completed the runout, giving Lipton one of the cards he needed to survive
