Ferrell Races for Tournament Life

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

We're not sure of the preflop action, but we do know that Michael Ferrell ended up all in for 12,000 or so with {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and was up against the {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} Nicolas Cardyn. Ferrell leaned in close as the dealer burned and put out the flop... {10-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}.

Ferrell had survived the hard part, but there were still two cards to come. The dealer burned one more time and turned the {5-Hearts}, another safe card for Ferrell. In order to eliminate his opponent, Cardyn needed either an ace or king in the river. For the third and final time the dealer burned and put down the {8-Spades}. "It usually comes on the river," Ferrell said with the slightest hint of a smile.
