Di Cicco Catches an Ace on the River to Stay Alive

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Jamila Von Perger, one of a handful of women remaining in the field, opened for 6,500 from the cutoff only to have Massimo Di Cicco three-bet all in for 65,900 from the button. The blinds both folded and Von Perger thought long and hard before making the call.

Di Cicco: {a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Von Perger: {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Di Cicco got it in good, but the {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} flop gave the lady a pair of queens. The {8-Diamonds} turn meant Di Cicco needed either a deuce or ace on the river, and he found the latter as the {A-Diamonds} spiked to extend his tournament life.
