Ace on the River Spares Hofer
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Paul Hoefer shoved for his last 290,000 from middle position and action checked to Dmitrijs Petrenko on the button, who tanked a bit before announcing he was all in for more. Everyone else folded and a showdown was held.
Paul Hoefer: A?10?
Dmitrijs Petrenko: K?K?
Hoefer was in trouble against Petrenko's kings, but the 2?6?Q?8?A? runout paired Hoefer's ace on the end — awarding him the double up in dramatic fashion.
