Gutierrez Gets Lucky

Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Endrit Geci opened the action with a raise to 4,000 in the cutoff. Elias Gutierrez sat in the small blind and thought for a minute or so before committing his stack of 15,500.
Geci snap-called and the cards were tabled.
Elias Gutierrez: Q?J?
Endrit Geci: Q?Q?
Gutierrez was in bad shape but flopped some hope on 5?K?9?. The 5? turn changed nothing, but Gutierrez's straight came in on the 10? river to double him up to slightly more than a starting stack.
Geci, meanwhile, was left with just 10,000, which he would lose not long after the completion of the hand.
