Hillman Rebuilding

MikePatrick

Nível 26

Louis Hillman has been battling a short stack and after a recent double-up from less than 100,000, he was at risk again shortly after.

Hillman raised on the button and got three-bet by Michael Rodrigues in the small blind. Hillman called, then after Rodrigues drew one, he drew one as well.

Rodrigues bet and got a call from Hillman, and the players each drew one again.

Hillman then faced another bet for his final 60,000 and he put it in the middle.

One card each was still needed and Rodrigues revealed what Hillman would have to beat.

It would be a tall order as Rodrigues showed 8x6x5x3x2x, while Hillman held 7x4x3x2x.

Miraculously, he peeled a 5x to make a wheel and survive in incredible fashion.
