"It's a Christmas Miracle"

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player opened for a raise under the gun and got three-bet by Jay Green on the button. In the small blind, Gerald Heckathorn shoved all in for 20,000, and the opener called off for less. Green called as well.

Heckathorn: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Under the gun: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Green: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Heckathorn mentioned he was optimistic since there were no kings, but the {5-Spades}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop gave everyone nada. The {10-Diamonds} brought a smidge of hope for Heckathorn, and the {10-Hearts} river was the two-outer he needed.

"Oh!" he yelled. "It's a miracle."

"That's a Christmas miracle," Green agreed.
