Dowdy Doubles Up; Advances Moments Later

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

After Jiacong Zhang limped, David Dowdy moved all in with the effective stack of 625,000. Zhang made the snap call.

David Dowdy: {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Jiacong Zhang: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Dowdy was behind and would need some help to stay in the tournament. That help did not arrive on the {9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop. The {a-Clubs} turn didn't change much, but Dowdy still had outs. He hit one of those outs in the form of the {a-Hearts} river, which counterfeited Zhang's hand, and Dowdy took the pot with the better kicker. This gave the two relatively even stacks, and play continued with Zhang visibly upset.

A few hands later, David Dowdy moved all in with the big stack of 1,500,000. Jiacong Zhang took a moment to prepare his phone to record the runout before making the call.

Jiacong Zhang: {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
David Dowdy: {k-Spades}{6-Spades}

Dowdy was once again behind. The {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop didn't change much, but the {6-Diamonds} on the turn gave Dowdy the better pair. The {3-Hearts} river completed the board. Dowdy scooped the pot, punching the tenth and final ticket to Day 3's final table. The two players shook hands following the conclusion of their heads-up play.
