Saka's Prayer is Answered
Livello 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Alain Saka was all in for 670,000 from the small blind and was at risk to Henning Wendlandt, who was in the big blind.
Alain Saka: A♥K♥
Henning Wendlandt: A♦Q♠
It was a blind versus blind cooler and Saka had the best of it until the Q♥10♠6♥ flop.
Saka then pleaded for his tournament life and found no help on the 7♠ turn. However, the J♠ river gave him the checkmark with Broadway and he was mightily relieved to still be in contention for the €200,000 first place prize.
