Raymond Hits a Miracle on the River

Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Alexandre Raymond moved all in again on the bubble, this time for 45,000 in middle position as Viktor Jensen put him at risk in early position. "I just wanted the TV time," Raymond joked as they waited to turn over their cards.
Alexandre Raymond: Q?Q?
Viktor Jensen: A?A?
Raymond had run into Jensen's aces as the flop came J?9?8?, giving Raymond some outs to a straight. The turn was the 6?, while the 10? fell on the river to give Raymond his straight and a miracle double up.
