Adam Survives a Scary Runout
Niveau 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Ramana Epparla raised from the cutoff before Michael Adam three-bet to 12,000 from the small blind. Epparla reraised to 27,000 and called when Adam moved all in for 38,400.
Michael Adam: J♠J♣
Ramana Epparla: A♥K♥
A collection of gasps came from the table as the Q♠J♥5♥ gave both players a massive sweat. Adam had a set of jacks while Epparla had outs to Broadway along with the nut-flush draw.
"It's never easy," said a player at the table.
The 8♣ turn kept Adam ahead and he leapfrogged his opponent in the chip counts after 2♠ completed the board.
