Perez Saved by the Ace

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 20,000 ante

"All in," announced Juan Perez in the hijack as he slid out a stack upon action folding to him.

"Oh my god," said Alex Kotliarsky on the button, looking up and away from the table. "I call," he added after a few more seconds, dropping a stack of chips onto the felt.

Juan Perez: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Alex Kotliarsky: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

"In the window," Kotliarsky said after seeing the flop {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. The turn {7-Spades} traded his two set outs for three gutshot straight outs, but it all proved to be for naught as the river {j-Diamonds} completed the runout to score Perez the double.

Kotliarsky was then left with under one big blind, but doubled on the following hand to get back to above 350,000.
