Jim Pifer Dodges Everything

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Jim Pifer started the day off strong but his stack dwindled as the tournament progressed. He was in the small blind and moved all in for around 20,000 over top of a raise from middle position. His opponent called.

Pifer tabled {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for a pair of fives and his opponent showed {a-Spades}{q-Spades} for a classic race.

The flop came {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, keeping Pifer in the lead but giving his opponent a flush draw along with his two over cards.

The turn was the {6-Clubs} and the river was the {8-Clubs}. Pifer was able to dodge the many outs his opponent had to secure the double up.
