Mulder Survives on a Miracle

Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Teun Mulder raised to 75,000 in the cutoff, leaving just 20,000 behind, and Juan Pardo called on the button.
The flop came A?5?5? and Mulder checked to Pardo who bet. Mulder then tossed in his last chips.
Teun Mulder: 4?4?
Juan Pardo: A?K?
Mulder was at serious risk of being eliminated on the bubble as Pardo showed down two pair. The turn was the 3?, but the 2? river gave Mulder a straight and a miraculous double up.
