Hill Goes Runner-Runner to Stay In It
A player opened the action with a raise to 2,500 from early position, which was called by Jason Hart in middle position, the player in the hijack, Rachel Sawyer in the cutoff, and both the small and big blind Chris Hill.
After the flop came A?Q?2? both the blinds and the early position player checked, when Hart bet out 12,000. The hijack, Sawyer, and the small blind all quickly folded. Then the big Hill went all in for his last 6,100. The early position player got out of the way to leave the players heads up with Hill at risk.
Chris Hill: A?4? 
Jason Hart: 2?2?
Hill was in rough shape after Hart flopped a set of deuces, needing running cards to stay in the tournament. Hill would get just that after the board ran out 3? on the turn, and J? on the river to give him a flush, to take the pot and double up.
