Nível 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Heads up to a turn of 6♣Q♥2♥2♣, Anthony Ruttler went all in for about 550,000 and put Max Kingstone to a tough decision, who spent a good chunk of time working out the hand.

Finally, with one card to come, Kingstone made the call and put Ruttler at risk.

Anthony Ruttler: A♥4♥
Max Kingstone: 4♠4♦

Kingstone saw the good news but still needed to dodge a heart or ace on the river, which he did when the 10♦ fell.

Ruttler got 7th place in this very tournament last year for $66,670 and has racked up plenty of cashes since then, so he'll be one to watch.
