Andreas Hagen Avoids Elimination

Andreas Hagen staked his tournament life on {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} and was called by an opponent holding {2-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. The flop was a scary {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Spades}, giving his opponent a straight draw. The turn was the {Q-Spades}, the river was the {K-Hearts} and Hagen doubled his short stack, avoiding the dreaded moniker of "bubble boy"... at least for now.
